-**This release fixes an important security hole, upgrade immediately.**
-
-News for ikiwiki 2.48:
-
- If you allowed password based logins to your wiki, those passwords were
- stored in cleartext in the userdb. To guard against exposing users'
- passwords, I recommend you install the [[cpan Authen::Passphrase]] perl module, and
- then run `ikiwiki-transition hashpassword /path/to/srcdir` to replace all
- existing cleartext passwords with strong (blowfish) hashes.
-
-ikiwiki 2.48 released with [[toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[toggleable text="""
- * Fix security hole that occurred if openid and passwordauth were both
- enabled. passwordauth would allow logging in as a known openid, with an
- empty password. Closes: #[483770](http://bugs.debian.org/483770)
- (CVE-2008-0169)
- * Add rel=nofollow to edit links. This may prevent some spiders from
- pounding on the cgi following edit links.
- * passwordauth: If Authen::Passphrase is installed, use it to store
- password hashes, crypted with Eksblowfish.
- * `ikiwiki-transiition hashpassword /path/to/srcdir` can be used to
- hash existing plaintext passwords.
- * Passwords will no longer be mailed, but instead a password reset link.
- * The password\_cost config setting is provided as a "more security" knob.
- * teximg: Fix logurl.
- * teximg: If the log isn't written, avoid ugly error messages.
- * Updated French translation. Closes: #[478530](http://bugs.debian.org/478530)"""]]
