    what files changed in 3.5.2 since the security patch?

    It appears these were the only files that changed since the security update (in terms of md5 hash):

    /includes/md5_sums_crawlability_vbseo.php
    /vbseo/includes/functions_vbseo.php
    /vbseo/includes/functions_vbseo_hook.php
    /vbseo/includes/functions_vbseo_url.php
    /vbseo/includes/functions_vbseo_vb.php

    Can someone verify this? Just want to make sure I have the correct files patched (I did overwrite everything but these are the only ones with new md5 hashes).

    Best Regards,

    M0rgulvale

    Not every file was effected. The md5 sums may not be accurate.

    I do not have an exact list of changed files handy.

    k two different hashing algorithsm (md5 and sha1) both show those were only files that changed so unlikely any hash collisions


    if someone knows the exact files changed for sure plz let me know but i think it was those

    I ran the check and I see none of the files as changed from the one I have on the server. I am totally confused if anything has changed?

    I can assure you files have changed, but there is no way to tell what you have on your server. I don't see what the big deal is... just ftp up the files from the download package, except for the config file, and you're done.

    Or, upgrade to 3.6

    No deal but wanted to confirm if things are changed in the version we are downloading now. Like it had last update date error just wanted to make sure there is no such error in the files. Heading towards the upgrade now and yes I have plans to move to 3.6 soon.
