Despite the upcoming release of WordPress 2.7 (hopefully next month), the WordPress team still takes their commitment to keeping the WordPress 2.6 branch safe.   Today they released WordPress 2.6.3.  In this update, a vulnerability is fixed in the Snoopy library, which is used for the dashboard feeds.

According to the WordPress team, this is a minor vulnerability and the only change in this update, so in order to upgrade all you need to do is upgrade the following two files:

  1. wp-includes/class-snoopy.php
  2. wp-includes/version.php

You can also doing a normal upgrade to 2.3 as well.
