phpBB 2.0.15 has been released, and it includes a critical update!

Here's the critical bug fix:

In includes/bbcode.php

Find:
Code:
{ 
   global $lang, $bbcode_tpl;

After, add:
Code:
   $text = preg_replace('#(script|about|applet|activex|chrome):#is', "\\1:", $text);

Find:
Code:
 */ 
function make_clickable($text) 
{

After, Add:
Code:
   $text = preg_replace('#(script|about|applet|activex|chrome):#is', "\\1:", $text);

yep, getting tired of these monthly updates. It's definitely hard on boards that have a lot of mods. Thanks for the heads up.

Anyone using and older version of phpBB should really upgrade right now! I've seen several phpBB boards get hacked lately -- this is probably one of the most critical upgrades ever for phpBB.

Yeah they had an important bb code fix that they posted in the announcement on their forum but it is always best to upgrade as soon as you can.
