*** Important Note: According to Fantastico support, critical releases for both Joomla (v1.5.13) and WordPress (v2.8.2) have just been released within the last couple of days, and will be included in the next Fantastico update which is expected within the next 24 hours.

It should be noted (once again) that Fantastico is an installer, not an "updater." Fantastico is designed to make it easy to install software, and though their developers are very diligent about providing the most update versions, it's the responsibility of the website owner and/or the person who installs the software/script to be aware of available security updates and patches.
