Description Vincent Danen 2010-12-10 18:14:55 UTC
WordPress 3.0.3 is available [1],[2] to correct issues in the remote publishing interface, which under certain circumstances allowed Author- and Contributor-level users to improperly edit, publish, or delete posts.  This issue only affects sites that have remote publishing enabled (it is disabled by default).

This issue affects current Fedora.  Please fix.
