These kinds of security issues scare the heck out of me. I’m so glad myhosting.com worries about taking care of them so I don’t have to.
This proactive security patching is a great gift this holiday season. Peace of mind is hard to come by these days.
“VPS server” (http://myhosting.com/virtual-private-servers) is a broken link.
Thanks Shane. All fixed!
Forums are a great way to get information on a potential security threat. I’m glad that in this case the forum helped to save the day!
Nothing should be as important to a VPS customer as the knowledge that the server is secure. Like Randy5 said, I’m happy to know myhosting.com is always on the case.
You’re right: the patch was simple to execute. I wish every patch involved just one file to unzip and upload!
by the way, why do you think this issue was timed to the new release? was that just to scare people, or is there some other reason?
