WP Update and Security Issues #5

Closed tkarim closed 9 years ago

Also from CU OIT:

I looked back through the security scan for florissantdatabase and also realized that the WordPress installation needs to be updated. This is usually a fairly quick process and can be done by following the guide below: https://codex.wordpress.org/Updating_WordPress#One-click_Update

The older versions of WordPress (it looks like florissantdatabase is using a version <3.8.2) have lots of security vulnerabilities that were fixed in later versions.

If you have any questions or concerns, let me know.
