With WordPress 1.5.x you are safe

Recent news of the PHPXMLRPC worm with claims that WordPress may be vulnerable.

However, the authors state that WordPress 1.5.x onwards are secure as they use IXR.

However, you are using 1.2 then please upgrade to 1.5.x or delete class-xmlrpc.php and class-xmlrpcs.php files from your installation’s wp-includes directory, though I don’t see why you wouldn’t want to upgrade.
