Serious Vulnerability in JetPack. Upgrade immediately.
In what is turning out to be the worst week for security in recent history, JetPack has a major vulnerability which allows an attacker to post to your site without permission.
Upgrade to the newest version of JetPack which is 2.9.3 immediately.
The JetPack team are providing fixes for all eleven releases that are vulnerable in case you can’t upgrade – see their blog for details.
Hopefully this isn’t the new normal.
