Comment (by nacin):
To be clear: The problem here is the potential for simultaneous upgrades —
see #3901 — *not* any kind of authentication issue. We've long ago made
the determination that DB upgrades do not require authentication.
The existing core upgrader currently relies on this — it fires a DB
upgrade automatically by sending an unauthenticated HTTP request. This
means that most people actually never see this page anymore.
Cron jobs that run `curl -s .../wp-admin/upgrade.php?step=upgrade_db` also
rely on this.
