wbb Update: WoltLab Suite 5.3.4 / 5.2.12 / 3.1.20 / 3.0.26

[Guest Alexander Ebert]

We have just released new versions of our products:

 

• WoltLab Suite 5.3.4
  
• WoltLab Suite 5.2.12
  
• WoltLab Suite 3.1.20
  
• WoltLab Suite 3.0.26
  

 

 

 

Stability releases (also known as "minor releases") aim to solve existing problems in the current version. Like every stability release, they do not introduce new features; It is strongly recommended to apply these updates.

 

Security Notice

 

 

We have identified an issue that permits administrators to merge user accounts that they should not be able to edit. It is not possible to gain any permissions this way, but since this is a potentially destructive action, we do classify this as a security problem. Administrators are strongly encouraged to install the latest updates as soon as possible.

 

 

 

All WoltLab Cloud customers have already been patched to address this issue.

 

Applying System Updates

 

 

Open your Administration Control Panel and navigate to Configuration > Packages > List Packages. Please click on the button Search for Updates located in the right corner above the package list.
