A <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/news\/2007\/04\/wordpress-213-and-2010\/\" rel=\"noopener\">security update<\/a> release is now available for both the 2.1 and 2.0 branches of WordPress and is highly recommended for all users of both branches.<\/p>\n<p>These releases include <strong>fixes<\/strong> for several publicly known minor XSS issues, one major XML-RPC issue, and a proactive full sweep of the WordPress codebase to protect against future problems.<\/p>\n<p>When an upgrade is announced, my next stop is <a href=\"https:\/\/markjaquith.wordpress.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Mark on WordPress<\/a>, where Mark Jaquith usually puts in the effort to <a href=\"https:\/\/markjaquith.wordpress.com\/2007\/04\/04\/wordpress-213-upgrade-changed-files-zip-changes-diff-changed-files-list\/\" rel=\"noopener\">figure out the changed files<\/a> and create some very useful files to help you identify the changes and upgrade WordPress faster. Of course, it is unofficial wordpress stuff.<\/p>\n<p>These are the 3 files you will usually find &#8211;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Changed Files List<\/strong> with a list of all the files that have changed since the last (2.1.2) release.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Changed Files ZIP<\/strong> &#8211; this is a zip file that includes only the files that have changed since the last (2.1.2) release.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Changes Diff<\/strong> &#8211; This is a diff file (a patch) with all the changes made since the last (2.1.2) release.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>See which file suits your needs. Never forget to do a <strong>full file and database backup<\/strong> before attempting to upgrade WordPress using these or any other files.
