SMF 1.1.6 and 2.0 beta 4 Released

[Grudge]

Simple Machines is happy to announce the release of SMF 1.1.6, which fixes a number of minor bugs in 1.1.5 and addresses a security vulnerability. While the vulnerability primarily affects SMF installations on Windows servers, we would like to encourage all users to upgrade as soon as possible.  A successful exploit could result in privilege escalation.

For those users running the 1.0.x and 2.0 beta branch, we have released 1.0.14 and 2.0 beta 4 respectively, addressing the above issues.

SMF 1.0.13 users
Use the package manager to upgrade to 1.0.14. Simply visit your admin center and follow the upgrade advice on the main page. Alternatively, you can use either of the packages on the download page.

SMF 1.1.5 users
Use the package manager to upgrade to 1.1.6. Simply visit your admin center and follow the upgrade advice on the main page. Alternatively, you can use either of the packages on the download page.

SMF 2.0 beta 3, 2.0 beta 3.1 and 2.0 beta 4 (Charter Member release)
Please upgrade to SMF 2.0 beta 4 public by using the packages from the download page. (News: What Is New In SMF 2.0 Beta 4 Public)

If you cannot upgrade using the package manager, please follow the instructions posted in the Online Manual about installing and upgrading.

just upgraded my big board (2.4 million posts) which is heavily modded from 1.1.5 to 1.1.6 using the package manager link in the admin center - and it went fantastic.

Took just a few seconds to update!

Well done guys

The mod site needs to be updated so that authors can report compatibility with 1.1.6 and Beta 4

[Compuart]

Will work on that now.

[ApplianceJunk]

Very nice, thanks for all the hard work.

I'm not looking for support, but wanted to point this out.

In my Administration Center in the Live from Simple Machines... box it shows this.

SMF 1.1.6 on April 20, 2008, 09:56:14 PM

It seem to have the same time and date as when the last patch came out for SMF 1.1.5

Anyone else see this in there Administration Center or is it just me?

[Eliana Tamerin]

Probably a little typo, it'll get fixed soon. Thanks for pointing that out, ApplianceJunk!

A couple days won't make much difference. It will take most modders that long to get familiar with 2B4 anyway. It will take a couple days before anybody upgrading to 2B4 is going to be looking for mod compatibility.

It'll probably be about an hour or two before mod support threads start filling up with the same "when will it be out?" questions.

By the way, I hereby Christen the new release "2-by-4" or "2x4" or "2B4." You heard that first right here and I'm the dude that named it!

Congratulations. upgrade was smooth and perfect. It even rectified the little top ten topic starter bug. Great job, and thanks.
