Drupal 6.16 and 5.22 released, fixing security issues
More information can be found -> HERE
Drupal 6.16 and 5.22, maintenance releases which fix issues reported through the bug tracking system, as well as security vulnerabilities, are now available for download. Drupal 6.16 also fixes other smaller issues.
Upgrading your existing Drupal 5 and 6 sites is strongly recommended. There are no new features in these releases.
Important update notes
These releases did not change the (default.)settings.php and robots.txt files, so you can keep your existing files intact, if you have modifications in them.
The .htaccess file was changed in Drupal 6.16, adding make files to the list of files not served by Apache. See http://drupal.org/node/638030 for more information.
