Thanks for the security fix.

Can I simply overwrite the changed files? Also, why is the Packages folder empty? Does it need to be uploaded also?

Cheers,
Gene


Ditto.

You don't have permission to access /index.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I have a modded 1.1.6, and every time I try uploading the update (I've tried both large upgrade and small update), I get a "The package you tried to upload either is not a valid package or has become corrupted." message. 


Also, when I click the upgrade link that is giving in my admin control panel, I get an error page saying:

"Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /forum/index.php on this server.

I guess I am not alone.  I get the same thing.

Don't bother I am out of here, thought we were discussion the new patch here my mistake.

The issues you are having are support issues, not an issue with the package. The package was installed and tested by many people before it was released and lots have already installed it.
Please use our support boards, Additionally if you searched, you may of come across the answer to your issue.

It is fine to discuss the patch. It is perfectly fine to ask about the patch. If you are having trouble installing, you need to use the support boards. Having multiple people posting support questions in a single topic is chaotic and no help to anyone.


Additionally, I would like to thank all our testers for being so quick to get testing done, and also to our developers, one of whom stayed up all night to get this out.

Seamless upgrade as usual 8)
Keep up the good work!

Updated on all my SMF forums went without a hitch.  Thank you for all your effort.

I'd also like to point out the speed at which the whole team was able to address these security concerns after they were made public.  Which I must say was released without prior knowledge to the SMF team to the public first.  Then test, configure and release a patch to the SMF community as fast as humanly possible.

Like under 3 days from first knowledge to patch, which for a purely volunteer program I'm sure commercial entities would have issues in that time frame for reaction.

Update went very well. Didn't expect anything less from SMF. Thanks for the quick turn around on the security issues.

tnx for the new version  ;)
from where i can see what is changed in the index.php to edit it manually because i have error on it in the installation  :)

My thanks to the Devs and the rest of the SMF Team for their dedication to resolve these issues as quickly as they did.

I'd like to thank everyone who reported the security issue via email.  I apologize that I don't have time to respond to each of those emails.

I'd also like to ask all of our users, if you find a security issue, please notify us first.  In many cases we would be able to repair that problem before it is listed on multiple sites.

Flawless update, as usual.  Many thanks to the entire team.  :)

The Manual Upgrade topic addresses the update to 1.1.6. Will this update be reflected in the same topic?

Thanks for the speedy patch!

It went very smoothly - as per usual.  :)

osjak, it will be updated shortly by one of our team members.

For now, if you can do basic reading of our modification format, you can open the patch and manually make the changes indicated.
