Description

WooThemes has released a security patch for its themes to deal with the recent TimThumb issue. Details are here: http://www.woothemes.com/2011/08/timthumb-security-flaw-patch/

Actions #1

Updated by Boone Gorges over 13 years ago

I have already fixed the TimThumb issue across all themes on the Commons. That was the purpose of release 1.2.4.1: http://dev.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2011/08/02/commons-1-2-4-1/

However, it still makes sense to upgrade the themes, as they may well have been upgraded for other reasons. I tried upgrading the framework with the instructions provided, but it didn't work (said I didn't need to upgrade, even though the version number is clearly out of date.) Can you pass along the necessary login info, so that I can figure out what's going on?

Actions #2

Just left the account info on a Writeboard called "Account Info" in Basecamp (not the CF project). However, I don't think it will be much use, as our one-year membership with WooThemes appears to have expired.

I guess this means that we can't upgrade the themes. We should probably have a discussion about this. If we are going to offer the themes, we should have a way of keeping them up to date (in terms of security, etc). So we should either budget for the yearly membership, or remove the themes.

We can re-up now that the budget is (or will soon be) in place.

Great, thanks. But I tried logging in with the details from the Writeboard mentioned above, and was unsuccessful. Would you mind checking those credentials, and updating them if necessary?
