HoRuS 0 Report post Posted February 24, 2005 Today I got this message in my inbox: I wanted to share it with you all Hi everyone, phpBB Group announces the release of phpBB 2.0.12. This release addresses a couple of potential exploits and fixes a number of issues involving path disclosures, etc. It also introduces a new ACP based version check (language package maintainers please note the additional localisation required for this). For further information please see our announcements forum at phpBB.com: https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=265423 As with all new releases we urge you to upgrade as soon as possible. You can of course find this download available on our website at: https://www.phpbb.com/downloads/ As per usual three packages are available to simplify your upgrade. Upgrade information using the mod template should be available shortly (for those who prefer this method). --Powered by PHPlist, https://www.phplist.com/ -- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karlo 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2005 It's difficult to install MODS and to maintain PHPBB. Before, I really like PHPBB. Now when I found out SimpleMachines (http://www.simplemachines.org/) it's really easy to install a MOD (GUI). I'm sure that you are going to love it. Check out their site. Check out the number of online users... It's really famous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HoRuS 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2005 Errrr is phpBB in a rush? Today I got another mail... phpBB 2.0.13 released: Hi everyone, phpBB Group announces the release of phpBB 2.0.13. This release addresses two recent security exploits, one of them critical. They were reported a few days after .12 was released and no one is more annoyed than us, having to release a new version in such a short period of time. Fortunately both fixes are easy and in each case just one line needs to be edited. The first issue is critical and we urge you to fix it on your forums as soon as possible: Open includes/sessions.php Find: if( $sessiondata['autologinid'] == $auto_login_key ) Replace with: if( $sessiondata['autologinid'] === $auto_login_key ) The second minor issue, reported to bugtraq several days ago, was the path disclosure bug in viewtopic.php. For further information on how to manually fix this bug please see our announcements forum at https://www.phpbb.com/: https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=267563 As with all new releases we urge you to upgrade as soon as possible. You can of course find this download available on our website at: https://www.phpbb.com/downloads/ Note: The Downloadmirror in Belgium works... The rest the need to resync. As per usual three packages are available to simplify your upgrade. Peace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
