If your website is developed on WordPress, you might notice that your current version has an upgrade that is now available.

OUR ADVICE AT FunctionEight IS THAT YOU SHOULD UPGRADE IT NOW!
WHY?

This is a security release applying to all previous versions.  WordPress strongly encourage all users to update their websites immediately. Read more here – https://wordpress.org/news/2016/05/wordpress-4-5-2/

We also recommend that If you are using Yoast SEO please upgrade it as well – to Version 3.2.5, as this is now also vulnerable.

If you are using Ninja Forms, you should update it asap as the last version contains multiple vulnerabilities. More information here – https://www.wordfence.com/blog/2016/05/ninja-forms-shell-upload-vulnerability-high-risk/

Let us know if you would prefer not to have to manage your own WordPress maintenance.  FunctionEight handle this type of service for many of our clients, so they don’t have to worry about issues like these distracting them from their business.
