bureX 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2005 PhpBB, one of the most popular PHP based forums is here out in the form of a new version - 2.0.16. A few critical issues were corrected, but other than that, nothing special... Still waiting for Olympus Hi everyone, phpBB Group announces the release of phpBB 2.0.16. This release addresses some bugfixes and one critical security issue. To fix this, please apply the following change: In viewtopic.php Find: $message = str_replace('"', '"', substr(@preg_replace('#(>(((?>([^><]+|(?R)))*)<))#se', "@preg_replace('#b(" . str_replace('\', '\\', $highlight_match) . ")b#i', '<span style="color:#" . $theme['fontcolor3'] . ""><b>\\1</b></span>', '\0')", '>' . $message . '<'), 1, -1));Replace with: $message = str_replace('"', '"', substr(@preg_replace('#(>(((?>([^><]+|(?R)))*)<))#se', "@preg_replace('#b(" . str_replace('\', '\\', addslashes($highlight_match)) . ")b#i', '<span style="color:#" . $theme['fontcolor3'] . ""><b>\\1</b></span>', '\0')", '>' . $message . '<'), 1, -1)); If your mail program wraps the lines it is advised to get the fix from the official announcement at: https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=302011 We urge you to update as soon as possible. You can of course find this download available on our downloads page (https://www.phpbb.com/downloads/). As per usual three packages are available to simplify your update. The Full Package contains entire phpBB2 source and English language package. The Changed Files Only contains only those files changed from previous versions of phpBB. Please note this archive contains changed files for each previous release. Patch Files contains patch compatible patches from the previous versions of phpBB. Select whichever package is most suitable for you. The changelog (contained within this release) is as follows: - Fixed critical issue with highlighting - Discovered and fix provided by Ron van Daal - Url descriptions able to be wrapped over more than one line again - Fixed bug with eAccelerator in admin_ug_auth.php - Check new_forum_id for existence in modcp.php - alessnet - Prevent uploading avatars with no dimensions - Xpert - Fixed bug in usercp_register.php, forcing avatar file removal without updating avatar informations within the database - HenkPoley - Fixed bug in admin re-authentication redirect for servers not having index.php as one of their default files set As always, our Code Changes Tutorial is available too for those with heavily modded boards. It can be downloaded from https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=301712 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ashiezai 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2005 normally I will not update my forum to the newest version as soon as they published it .. i will however wait a few weeks or maybe a month to see whether if's there's any security holes or vulnarability or incompatibility found by others .. it's safe to do so in my opinion ..

bureX 0 Report post Posted July 2, 2005 Unzip the phpBB zip file into a folder in a folder called "forum" and copy it on your Xisto web space. Then, run the "install.php" script by typing yoursubdomainname.trap17.com/forum/install, and follow the instructions...That's just a quick explanation... If you haven't done anything similar to this before, then here's a useful tutorial (With lot's of pictures, only 9 steps):https://openmerchant.com/search.html?domain=forum-forum&searchType=contain&page=0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeAnn Rimes My Angel 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2005 I updated all my forums the first 15 minutes it came out. I just happened to be on. Since it fixes a critical secruity highlighting issue, it would be best that all users update as soon as possible. It seems stable enough, and I have had no problems with my forums... yet.
