23 december 2024 PHPBB update van 3.3.13 naar 3.3.14.

Greetings everyone,

We are pleased to announce the release of phpBB 3.3.14 “Bertie All Along”. This version is a maintenance release of the 3.3.x branch which introduces a number of improvements aimed at enhancing the user experience and overall stability of the software and resolves some issues noticed in previous releases.

The improvements include the introduction of separate lists for disabled and not installed Extensions in the ACP as well as the addition of the ability to force reparsing BBCodes via the command line interface (CLI).

We fixed an issue that resulted in AJAX errors when deleting cookies on some pages and added proper handling of E_USER_ERROR in PHP 8.4. Furthermore, an issue with occasionally incorrect results displaying in the trace permission feature and non-working pages when testing out user’s permissions have been resolved. Another issue that resulted in missing buttons for approving new topics or posts has also been fixed.

The full list of changes is available in the changelog file within the docs folder contained in the release package. You can find the key highlights of this release below and a list of all issues fixed on our tracker at https://tracker.phpbb.com/issues/?filter=16691

26 april 2025: phpBB upgrade van 3.4.14 naar 3.3.15


Met wat tegenslagen is de upgrade toch nog gelukt!

We are pleased to announce the release of phpBB 3.3.15 “In Memory of Mark D. Hamill”. This version is a maintenance and security release of the 3.3.x branch which fixes one security issue, introduces a number of improvements aimed at enhancing the user experience and overall stability of the software and resolves some issues noticed in previous releases.

Since the introduction of phpBB 3.1, phpBB has been using JavaScript and jQuery to improve the responsiveness of prosilver. We did receive a report about a potentially dangerous code in this section. After an internal audit of this and related code, we noticed that some of the handling of data added by an admin is potentially insecure and could lead to cross site scripting.

The improvements include better handling of HTTPS connections in the version check since switching to Guzzle in the previous release as well as the introduction of proper support for TLS v1.3 with SMTP servers.

Notable bug fixes in this release include resolving an issue that resulted in PHP fatal errors when converting from phpBB 2 with Attachment MOD and issues with the pagination resulting in incorrect ordering when searching for users posts. Furthermore, an issue with duplicate users being displayed on the memberlist while sorting and a potential overflow of the topic views count have been addressed.

The full list of changes is available in the changelog file within the docs folder contained in the release package. You can find the key highlights of this release below and a list of all issues fixed on our tracker at https://tracker.phpbb.com/issues/?filter=16790
