+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 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)
+ * 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)"""]] \ No newline at end of file
