SMF is a forum software that works with MySQL and PHP, developed by Simple Machines. SMF is the successor to YaBB SE and similar to other forum packages such as phpBB. The last time we reported on this software package was over a year and a half ago, but in the meantime several versions have passed, including the final version of SMF 1.1. However, some bugs have crept into the latter version, so Simple Machines found it necessary to update SMF to 1.1.1. The following points have been addressed according to the changelog:
Fixed potential XSS vulnerability for users of Internet Explorer. (Reported by Jessica Hope and rotwang)
Changed the way SMF logs IP addresses to make it harder for someone to bypass banning.
Fixed bug in BBC parsing that could cause an error for people with special characters in their username on certain versions of PHP.
Fixed apostrophes in smiley location path causing a database error.
Fixed usage of an array before it was declared causing issues for bridges.
Fixed Personal Message labels not being properly restricted to the current member.
Fixed search sometimes returning no results when it should have done.
The sticky checkbox in prune boards would alternate when it shouldn’t have done.
Send announcements out in slightly smaller chunks.
