I was anticipating on doing an upgrade on March when WordPress 2.5 should be available, however today there has been an urgent security release - version 2.3.3.
WordPress 2.3.3 is an urgent security release. A flaw was found in our XML-RPC implementation such that a specially crafted request would allow any valid user to edit posts of any other user on that blog. In addition to fixing this security flaw, 2.3.3 fixes a few minor bugs. If you are interested only in the security fix, download the fixed version of xmlrpc.php and copy it over your existing xmlrpc.php.
Time to upgrade again folks!
