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
(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"""]]
