    Do I need to backup before applyin security patch ?

    I am thinking to just apply the 3.5.5 plugin (security), so do I need to back up all my files before doing it ?? I have more than 10 hacks installed.

    It's always a good procedure to do before any upgrade - just in case.

          ok kool
          I have seen about the attachment.php file. I am in 3.5.4, just applied the security patch(plugin) so can I just replace the current attachment.php file with the new one ??

          or is it only for those who upgraded to 3.5.5 completely ?

            No, you can upload the attachment.php file, overwriting your current file to fix that issue.
