phpBB 2.0.14 released

Post by Acyd Burn »

Hi everyone,

phpBB Group announces the release of phpBB 2.0.14, the "We know we are (not) furry" edition. This release addresses some bugfixes as well as fixing some minor non-critical security issues. All issues not reported to us before being released are not credited to the founder, as usual.

As with all new releases we urge you to update as soon as possible. You can of course find this download available on our downloads page. As per usual three packages are available to simplify your update.
  • Full Package
    Contains entire phpBB2 source and English language package
  • 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.

Please ensure you read the INSTALL and README documents in docs/ before proceeding with installation or updates!.

What has changed in this release?

The changelog (contained within this release) is as follows:
  • Hardened author and keyword search a bit to not allow very server intensive searches
  • Fixed full path disclosure in bad word parsing
  • Resetting complete userdata array in session code if authentication fails
