@Gene -

Around the end of August several themes were noted to be using an older
version of timthumb that had a potentiall security issue associated with the
code as it was written. The timbthumb script itself was corrected before
then but there were still older versions in use on some repository themes.

If you are using timthumb you can get the current version here if need be:
http://code.google.com/p/timthumb/


Cais.
