Topic: SMF 2.0.2 and 1.1.16 critical security patches released

[Masterd]

Congrats on the hard work, team!

I think I've found a problem with one of the files in the 2.0.2 small-update from the downloads area (alas, I'm using Windows IIS6, and thus package manager is seemingly impossible to get working properly, so I have to do manual updates). This one - http://download.simplemachines.org/index.php?thanks;filename=smf_2-0-2_update.zip

Anyway, the errant file in question is:

Themes/default/PersonalMessage.template.php

and the problem seems to be that it is still reporting as Version 2.0, not version 2.0.2

Is this correct?

I noticed that after I did the manual file-copy followed by running the 'upgrade.php' to sort out my MySQL DB - all of which seemed to work ok - I went back to the Administration Center and confirmed that my board had updated. The Admin Center shows '2.0.2' as the headline version, but when doing the 'more detailed' check, I see Default Templates with a red 2.0 next to it, and when I open that up, I see a red 2.0 next to PersonalMessage.template.php.

I confirmed that I had correctly copied the right files over, so I then looked at the individual files within the 2.0.2 small update distribution file and compared PersonalMessage.template.php from the Core and Default themes in a file-comparison utility. They are vastly different (maybe to be expected? I don't know) - but specifically, the Core instance of the file showed Version 2.0.2 while the Default instance showed 2.0

Is this correct? Did someone forget to include the correct Default Theme file in the small manual upgrade zip?

My forum uses the Default Theme, by default (and I have no idea whether that's a clone of the Core theme, or what) - so will I have a problem at some point when members start using the PM system?

Any help gratefully received - if you need further information or testing please ask away! Thanks.

take a look at http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=463145.0 also this thread is not for support you should open your own thread for issues related to the upgrade.

[BigJacko]

Ilori - thanks for the pointer to the other thread. I will continue this discussion there.

However, for the record, I wasn't actually looking for support, and don't consider this a personal support issue. I was merely trying to be helpful, and was reporting an ERROR with the small-update zip's contents (an error which I can see is indeed accepted as such on the other thread).

Thanks anyway.

Do these security updates address DDOS attack vulnerability?

[Arantor]

Nope. You can't solve a DDOS issue at the application level, if you're being hit by a DDOS, talk to your host.

That's what I thought.  Thanks!

I've used it before, but can't find it now, the step by step instructions on upgrading from an older version? I'm on SMF 2.0 RC4. Thanks!

What exactly were you trying to do when you got that message?

[Ieazo]

Please help our forum has gone down and I am on-line now trying to fix but I must admit to not really having a clue what is going on, any advice greatfully received. It is throwing the following message no matter what I try, won't let me into admin panel or owt???

"Table './planetai_smf924/smf_log_online' is marked as crashed and should be repaired
File: /home/planetai/public_html/Sources/Subs.php
Line: 2608

Note: It appears that your database may require an upgrade. Your forum's files are currently at version SMF 2.0.2, while your database is at version 2.0.1. The above error might possibly go away if you execute the latest version of upgrade.php."

Apologies if I have posted in the wrong section, I'm a bit new to all of this and slightly panicked.
