WordPress has released a new security-focused update, version 7.0.3, that patches multiple known security issues for sites running the WordPress platform. These fixes address vulnerabilities that could be exploited to access, damage, or compromise your site and its visitor data.
Because this is a dedicated security release, it is strongly recommended that you apply the update to your site as soon as possible to reduce your risk of these issues being targeted. You can install the update directly through your WordPress site’s Dashboard by navigating to the Updates section and selecting “Update Now,” or by downloading the new version from the official WordPress.org website.
