Magento 2 Patches 2.2.1, 2.1.10 and 2.0.17 out
Magento 2 has currently 3 different versions (the last was released on September), which are all way better than first beta versions. There is currently no need to use older versions – it is always a good idea to update to the newest release. As always some third party modules may have problems with minor version number jumps, so Magento offers security updates for all versions.
More and more shops use Magento 2 instead of Magento 1 and so security becomes a more important task. Magento 2 development focuses currently more on stable and security related topics.
