Per Brandon Vincent:
> All,
>
> I am with the Fedora Project Security Team and we've noticed some
> outstanding security issues regarding wordpress-mu.
>
> For a detailed explanation of the security issues please see Bugzilla
> reports [1] and [2].
>
> wordpress-mu is no longer maintained by upstream and has been merged
> into the regular WordPress source code.
>
> Ideally, the wordpress-mu package and associated plug in packages
> should be removed from the EPEL repositories because of their
> vulnerable nature.

Thanks!
