Security Announcement -- Admin Security Patch
A vulnerability has been discovered in the admin section of the carts we use. To take advantage of this vulnerability any attacker must know the URL of your admin section.
A link to the patch is posted below. Please download the patch file and unzip it. The file contains a readme.html with full details on how to install the security patch.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
There are Directories/Folders embedded in the zip. So, when you expand/unzip, you MUST tell your unzip program to expand the folders too! Otherwise you are likely to end up putting the wrong files in the wrong places.
Follow the instructions carefully and remember, the documentation tells you exactly where to put the files. This is an ADMIN patch so all the files go under your admin directory in their respective folders.
REMEMBER WHEN APPLYING ANY PATCHES ALWAYS DO A FULL BACKUP. That includes your MySQL database, data and your PHP/HTML/CSS/TEMPLATE/IMAGES files by downloading them to your computer.
We can do all this for you if required. For 19.88 we will apply the patch, check your site, change your admin directory & update the details in your configure.php file to reflect the changes made. To purchase please click here.
