My website also same problme. This error says magical_rules database in not found from your SQL server. and there is no table statscurl. I think this is due to Statpress pulgins but this is something else from WordPress v3.3. I think we have to wait for next releases. * [Shashikanta](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sashikanta/) * (@sashikanta) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/database-error-wordpress-33-vulnerability/#post-2451747) * I resolve this issues this is due to All in One SEO Pack – Pro Version which is not compatible with WordPress 3.3 after disabling this there is no such error msgs. * [b1ngo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/b1ngo/) * (@b1ngo) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/database-error-wordpress-33-vulnerability/#post-2451750) * I have not yet updated to v3.3, i’m still using WordPress v3.2.1. with elegant themes … i have teh same problem with my website, i’ve deleted all plugins * active plugins at my website are: 1.Fast Secure Contact Form 2.NextGEN Gallery 3.WordPress Google +1 Button – Advanced Plugin, Includes Redirection * the error is still there, any ideeas how i can get rid of it ? * thank you * [Sergey360](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sergeyphotographer/) * (@sergeyphotographer) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/database-error-wordpress-33-vulnerability/#post-2451770) * The easiest solution – write to wp-config.php define(‘WP_DEBUG’, false); * [b1ngo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/b1ngo/) * (@b1ngo) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/database-error-wordpress-33-vulnerability/#post-2451779) * Thank you sergeyphotographer … the ‘WP_DEBUG’ was already by default set to false, ilve changed it to ebable and is the same error … now i’ve changed it back to false the same error ….

Otherwise you’re hijacking someone else’s, and that’s not polite 🙂 * [CareAyurveda](https://wordpress.org/support/users/careayurveda/) * (@careayurveda) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/database-error-wordpress-33-vulnerability/#post-2451804) * I have the same issue since a couple of days, im using mycousine from elegant themes.
