Security Patch a Must Upgrade - Mambo

MasterChief · February 1st, 2005, 15:29

Patches are available for Mambo Version 4.5.0-1.0.9 and Version 4.5.1a at MamboForge to counter a vulnerability within Mambo. All administrators of Mambo sites are encouraged to upgrade at their earlist convenience.

At this time we are not releasing details of how to leverage this vulnerability to protect existing sites.

The patch files contains a new version of /includes/mambo.php which has a countermeasure for this vulnerability. Simply upload the mambo.php in the zip to your server, replacing you existing /includes/mambo.php file on your site.

Note that for a 4.5.0 site, the file is /classes/mambo.php.

*Update*

It appears this issue is related to a vulnerability found in PHP last month.
