Actually, the security fix is in auth.inc.php3, not admin.php3.

The change from 2.5 to 3.0 is minimal. IMNSHO it didn't deserve a full revision increment. The database back end is, as near as I can tell, exactly the same. In other words, you don't have to run any upgrading scripts. You just mv your old files out of the way and unpack the new files in their place.

the update file is outdated... it still says how to upgrade from 2 to 2.5, not from X to 3.0
what are you supposed to do to upgrade your php nuke website to 3.0???
I had the same questions. The author replies can be found here:

They are in Spanish though, just in case I'll try to help here...
To fix the security hole simply use the new admin.php3 file. And for compability with PHP4
use the new header.php3 file.
Later.
