NEW DELHI (Reuters) – Police arrested 10 people on Saturday who they said were behind bomb attacks which killed at least 45 people in Ahmedabad last month.

Police said one of those arrested, Abu Bashir, was the mastermind of the bombings and that all the suspects were active members of the banned Students’ Islamic Movement of India (SIMI).

“As of information we have right now, he is the mastermind of the blasts (and) this network is the brains behind the blasts,” senior police officer P. C. Pande told a news conference in Ahmedabad.

At least 16 bombs exploded in Ahmedabad on July 26, a day after another set of blasts in Bangalore killed a woman. Three days later, several unexploded bombs were found in the town of Surat, in Gujarat.

A little-known group called the “Indian Mujahideen” had claimed responsibility for the Ahmedabad attacks. But Pande said Indian Mujahideen was just “another identity” for SIMI.

WordPress 2.3.3 released

The process of upgradation continues and can’t be limited.

In the similar context, the WordPress blog just revealed that WordPress 2.3.3 is out, and it is supposed to be an “urgent security release.”

wp-logo-1.jpg      What it is about:

  • 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.
  • Honestly I think that these constant security updates are starting to get cumbersome. The good thing is that this time and can update only the xmlrpc.php file.
  • Finally, there is also a bug on the WP-Forum plugin which is already being exploited, so check the upgrade if you use that plugin on your blog.

       One can easily download WordPress 2.3.3 from wordpress website.
