glFusion v1.1.6 continues our commitment to providing a secure and robust content management system. This release release includes a few minor enhancements, security updates, and bug fixes.
This release does make configuration and database modifications, so you must run the Upgrade Wizard after you have loaded the files to your server.
glFusion now supports cookies with the HTTPOnly flag. The cookie is accessible only through the HTTP protocol. This means that the cookie won't be accessible by scripting languages, such as JavaScript. This setting can effectively help to reduce identity theft through XSS attacks (although it is not supported by all browsers).
The installation scripts have been reworked to be a bit more secure. We still recommend you either rename or remove the public_html/admin/install/ directory once you have completed the installation or upgrade.
Security of your web site is very important to us. If an vulnerability is found, we try to fix it immediately. The challenge is informing our users of the risk and the fix. We now offer the
glFusion Announce Mailing List that you can subscribe to. We will post all known issues and security issues to this list. We also offer a
Known Issues / Security Updates RSS feed you can subscribe to as well.
We strongly recommend that you subscribe to one of the items above to ensure you receive prompt notification of any security vulnerabilities and their solution.
