On: Zero Day Vulnerability in many Wordpress Themes

[rozim]

I used to see so many security problems with xmlrpc.php, and never used the functionality, so I put in a cron job entry that did this for all blogs I had hosted:

    mv PATH/xmlrpc.php PATH/xmlrpc.php.nope
    chmod 000 PATH/xmlrpc.php.nope

something like once an hour in case I upgraded and forgot to secure the site.
