Comment(by markjaquith):

 I've seen a lot of WP exploit scripts over the years. Not a single one of
 them checked the version. They probed the vulnerability they were
 exploiting, using the success or failure of that to determine whether or
 not to proceed with the payload. Or they just try the payload blindly.
