Geeklog 1.5.2sr1

Security

Fernando Muñoz reported a possible XSS in the query form on most admin panels that we are fixing in this release.

You can download an upgrade archive for Geeklog 1.5.2 or the complete 1.5.2sr1 tarball to upgrade from any previous version.

The upgrade tarball contains only one file and should also work as a quick fix for Geeklog 1.5.0 and 1.5.1. We do recommend upgrading to 1.5.2sr1 from those versions, though, due to various other bugs that have since been fixed.

Fernando is one of the students applying for participation in the Google Summer of Code with Geeklog, btw. Which just goes to show that it's always good to have a fresh pair of eyes looking over your code. Thanks, Fernando!

On a side note, a recent security issue that was reported for glFusion (a fork of Geeklog) does not affect any of the currently released versions of Geeklog. It does, however, affect the current development version (what will become Geeklog 1.6.0). We will address that issue before the release of Geeklog 1.6.0.

The included README claims it's bug #84 where it's actually bug #841. Claiming a low number such as #84 makes it look like it wasn't fixed for years (and indeed #84 is a suspended feature request from 2004).

Is was about to say "it's a typo, not a conspiracy". But I don't even see a typo - it does say

Fernando Munoz reported a possible XSS in the query form on most admin panels that we are fixing with this release (bug #0000841).

Does it not?

I could have sworn it said 84 earlier. Well, it doesn't matter now.

Hi,

geeklog-1.5.2sr1/public_html/docs/changed-files lists these files:


geeklog-1.5.2sr1/public_html/admin/install/index.php
geeklog-1.5.2sr1/public_html/docs/changed-files
geeklog-1.5.2sr1/public_html/docs/changes.html
geeklog-1.5.2sr1/public_html/docs/history
geeklog-1.5.2sr1/public_html/siteconfig.php
geeklog-1.5.2sr1/system/lib-admin.php

But when I checked against geeklog-1.5.2,


geeklog-1.5.2sr1/system/pear/Archive/Tar.php

was also updated.

I wish that new Tar.php improve somthing and no negative effect. :-)
