It looks like the WordPress team has released what is classified as an urgent security release, primarily to fix a security flaw for WordPress blogs with registration enabled. It is recommended that everyone make the upgrade as soon as possible. The release also comes with a few minor bug fixes.
According to the WordPress team, this could be a pretty easy upgrade, as you only need to override the xmlrpc.php file to fix the security concerns. If you want all the bug fixes, you’ll need to do a full upgrade.
As a quick side note, they are also recommending users of the WP-Forum plugin deactivate it until the author is able to fix a vulnerability.
