vBSEO Security Bulletin - vBSEO 3.3.2 Released

I never do... it only takes a few seconds to complete.

Some users may see a DB error, but a refresh and its fixed.

It can't hurt though if you want to shut it down.

Uh-huh... in my business, we call that "rationalization".

Call it what you want

You will notice there is an RC1 release annoucement, but not 1 for Rc2, as RC2 has not officially been released yet

Where do I look for future or current security updates, (using 3.5 RC2 w vB 4.0.2) ?

An email will be sent to all customers before a forum annoucement is made (to give customers time to patch before it is made public). Make sure your email address in your profile is corrrect and that you've whitelisted @vbseo.com and @crawlability.com so you get all the emails.

Code:

<Files ~ "\.(php\d*|cgi|pl|phtml)$">
   order allow,deny
   deny from all
</Files>

.htaccess
What folders in vB need to be chmod 777? What should the /images/ directory be?

all folders that are chmod 777 should have that added to it.

anything that is wrtable.

sig pics/
customavatars/
profilepics
attachments/

etc

Why do I have to purchase vbSEO again to fix a major security flaw?

Hello ,

I don't see a vBSEO License assigned to your username. If you purchased vBSEO please supply me your forum url and payment transaction id via PM.

Hi Mert,
