XOOPS 2006/05/23 security patch released
Date 2006/5/23 3:20:00 | Topic: XOOPS
| The 2006/05/23 security patch has been released to fix the security issue disclosed as Secunia Advisory 20176.
Please note that this issue only concerns servers configured with register_globals set to on, which is not recommended.
But we recommend that every XOOPS 2.X user apply it, especially those who are forced to use a 2.0.x version older than 2.0.13.2, since the additional protection it contains may protect you from other issues known to these old versions.
