BenV's notes

Meh.
Yet another security issue….
“Prutsers”. Oh well, at least they fixed it.

As for the upgrade, once again I had to manually increase their timeout to more than 60 seconds.
Just for reference:
Edit wp-admin/includes/file.php with your favorite editor and change line 448 so it has a more reasonable timeout, I put it to 300:

$response = wp_remote_get($url, array('timeout' => 300));
