I'm not going in to the specifics. Everyone with a WordPress install needs to upgrade to 2.0.7 - NOW.

Everyone should upgrade to the latest PHP versions 4.4.3 and 5.1.4 to be protected against this vulnerability

Your blog could be compromised by a person or a bot. They could of course do this and trash your blog, more worrying they could do this and you'd never know and by banging a small upload script in to your web space be able to store malware, virus and the like on your host and you'd never know. Send spam, use your server to inject stuff in to browsers, run a chat room - the list is endless heh

Anyone using the SVN of of Wordpress will have had the change in since revision 4717 (11th Jan 07).

There are details on the trac, but I'm not sure if it's relevent or wise to put the link?
