WordPress has released version 7.0.4, a security-focused update that fixes a vulnerability in the WordPress platform. This update addresses a security flaw that could leave unpatched sites open to potential threats.
Because this is a security release, it is recommended that you update all WordPress sites you run as soon as possible to keep them safe.
You can complete the update in one of two ways: either download the new version directly from WordPress.org, or go to your site’s Dashboard, select the Updates option, and click the Update Now button.
