Is the recent wordpress hack a hoax?

What would be the best way to upgrade people's old wordpress installations?

This attack is serious enough to overcome all your fears of updating. If older WordPress Plugins are holding you back, update them to the latest version or replace them with new.
Convince a few big bloggers that it's necessary and a good goal. Have them blog about being hacked.

Everybody is talking about it already.

The release archive of wordpress contains all the older versions.
If a release gets hacked, wordpress usually removes the old versions from the archive.
