3.0.3-rc2 (2012-11-16)

Overview

3.0.3 provides security fixes, bugfixes and a number of minor enhancements since 3.0.2.

Upgrading from 3.0.x should be a straightforward matter of dropping in the new release, with the exception noted below.

Upgrading

Impact of the upgrade:

  • Reset password email links generated prior to 3.0.3 will cease to work.
  • Users who use the "remember me" login feature will have to log in again.

API changes related to the below security patch:

  • Member::generateAutologinHash is deprecated. You can no longer get the autologin token from AutoLoginHash field in Member. Instead use the return value of the Member::generateAutologinTokenAndStoreHash and do not persist it.
  • Security::getPasswordResetLink now requires Member object as the first parameter. The password reset URL GET parameters have changed from only h (for hash) to m (for member ID) and t (for plaintext token).
  • RandomGenerator::generateHash will be deprecated with 3.1. Rename the function call to RandomGenerator::randomToken.

Security: Hash autologin tokens before storing in the database.

Severity: Moderate

Autologin tokens (remember me and reset password) are stored in the database as a plain text. If attacker obtained the database they would be able to gain access to accounts that have requested a password change, or have "remember me" enabled.
