This is the 3rd update after the release of WordPress 2.8 version. This (2.8.3) is a security release and upgrading is highly recommended.
Unfortunately, I missed some places when fixing the privilege escalation issues for 2.8.1. Luckily, the entire WordPress community has our backs. Several folks in the community dug deeper and discovered areas that were overlooked. With their help, the remaining issues are fixed in 2.8.3.
Download 2.8.3, or upgrade automatically from your WP dashboard.
