Bug Fixes

Highlights

Fixed issues with mixed HTTPS sites, with numbers in page aliases, and with module installation and editing.

1.12.2
 (Sicherheitsupdate)
25 Juni 2015 - 45MBThis release addresses a concern about how the HTTP_HOST header can potentially be spoofed in some circumstances resulting in various problems including the fact that all links from your site could be altered to point to another domain. We have modified the code such that this is no longer easily possible. This change will not be of a concern for most installations, but on some sites where the same installation of CMS Made Simple can be accessed by requesting different domains some modifications may be required.



In CMSMS 1.12.2 we also introduced a new config variable entitled 'host_whitelist' which provides an absolute list of which hosts your installation will support. Developers using installations that support some kind of multi-site configuration will need to review the documentation for this config variable in the doc/config_reference.pdf file distributed with CMSMS 1.12.2 and adjust their config.php file accordingly.



Additionally, there are a few very minor fixes included with 1.12.2, including some fixes to the cms_url class.



Core - General

Improvements to the cms_url class.
Security fix to prevent HTTP_HOST attacks
use FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING to clean the $_SERVER data before loading config stuff.


CMSMailer 5.2.14

Includes security fixes released as a module separately

1.12
 (Hauptversion) (Sicherheitsupdate)
13 April 2015 - 45MBThis release can be called a 'security and stability' release where we primarily made changes related to security, but also attempted to resolve or improve a number of outstanding issues.



The biggest changes in this release are related to security. First, we now require, and enforce that register_globals (a PHP setting that has long been considered insecure, and is removed from newer versions of PHP, see: http://php.net/manual/en/security.globals.php) be completely disabled in your CMSMS install. Secondly, we have removed the {eval} statements from the factory default News summary and detail templates. This will prevent content submitted by un-verified users from doing nasty things with smarty. And thirdly (though not last) we made some changes in our smarty config to improve security.



Along with the security fixes we have improved the homepage functionality in the CMSMS admin console, fixed some lingering minor issues, and generally improved the stability of your favourite content management system. Because this is a security release, we do encourage everybody to upgrade their CMSMS websites as soon as possible. As of now, per our support policy the only two officially supported versions of CMSMS are 1.11.13 and 1.12.



Core - General

Now require that register_globals be OFF. This may generate errors for some sites, you MUST change their PHP config if register_globals is on! [Security fix]
Smarty template security fix
Replace stub file for function.process_pagedata.php
Fixes Admin homepage issue (Note: current homepage must be reset!)
Adds the CmsAdminUtils class (new utility class for Admin requests). Currently with two static methods
Fixes to HTML entity decoding
PHP 5.2.x compatibility issues
Remove the html_entity_decode_utf8 function (should only have been used in the core). We now have one standard cms_html_entity_decode function
Minor fix to {cms_selflink}
Remove some extra whitespace from editcontent and edittemplate
Increase Image Manager height
Fixes issue with French locale string
Fixes #9598 - Issues with cancel button in changegroupperm and changegroupassign


News

Remove {eval} from factory default display templates (will not effect existing installs) [Security fix]
Fixes #10129 - DoS by specifying extra-large pagelimit (now maximum of 1000) [Security fix]
Fixes #10452 - Browsecat counting articles that do not start yet

1.11.13
 (Sicherheitsupdate)
23 Februar 2015 - 45MBThis is an important security release! The issues we found were related to reliable ways to generate a full path disclosure, and to XSS vulnerabilities, and potential flooding and denial of service attacks in the News fesubmit feature. Additionally, though minor, we fixed an XSS vulnerability in the add and edit bookmark functionality in the admin interface. These vulnerabilities apply to all versions of CMSMS.



The News fesubmit feature that allows site visitors to submit News articles was particularly vulnerable. Although we do not think that this feature is used much, it is available, and all CMSMS sites that use the News module, or have it enabled, are vulnerable to attack. The new version of News now has an option to enable the fesubmit feature, which is OFF by default. This means that upon upgrade, the sites that do use the fesubmit feature of News must explicitly enable it in the module settings.



Because of the important nature of these security issues, we recommend that everybody upgrade all of their websites to CMSMS 1.11.13 as soon as possible. As per our support policy, the only supported versions of CMSMS as of this release are 1.11.13 and 1.11.12.

 (Sicherheitsupdate)
1 Februar 2014 - 45MBThis release includes upgrades to Smarty, jQuery, jQuery UI, the blueimp file upload mechanism, a few small bug fixes, fixes for one or two security vulnerabilities, and an improvement to the module loading mechanism. The security key used in each and every admin request has been upgraded from 8 to 16 characters to minimize the likelihood of any brute force attacks being able to hack into your website.

1.11.9
 (Sicherheitsupdate)
28 September 2013 - 45MBThe last release of CMSMS was only a couple of weeks ago, and, normally, we do not like to release versions of CMSMS so quickly. However, there was a problem with the 1.11.8 release that we did not detect until a few days after release, and since there were a few bugs with respect to this release that were worth fixing we thought it better to fix the code and call the release 1.11.9. Due to the fact that some issues with respect to security and PHP 5.3 dependencies were fixed, we recommend that everybody upgrade to version 1.11.9 as soon as possible.



Core - General:

Fixes version.php to represent new schema
Users with 'Modify Any Page' and 'Remove Content' can delete almost any page
Fixes minor issue with event handlers
Removes a debug limit on caching in contentoperations
Robots don't index Error Console pages

1.11.5

23 März 2013 - 45MBAmong the fixes in this version is a change to the behavior of Global Content Blocks. From 1.11.5 onward, the name of GCBs can only contain alphanumeric characters and the underscore. This is because Smarty treats some special characters (particularly the ":") differently in its parsing mechanism. For the same reason, ThemeManager has been changed to use "//" as a delimiter between the theme name and the template or stylesheet name when importing an XML theme.



Core - General

Global Content Blocks (GCB's) can now only have letters and numbers in the name!!
Fixes to caching issues in MenuManager and module templates
Admin module actions now catch an exception

Fixes issue with aliases on sectionheaders being navigable. (Now throws 404 error)
Modules can no longer be upgraded if the schema version in the database does not match the version.php file (this solves the problem of the modules being upgraded too early in the upgrade process)
Fixes problem with module_help links in the OneEleven admin theme
Fixes problem where CMSMS internal parser mixed
