Snipe IT v4.8.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2019-12-06 // over 4 years ago
  • 🆕 New in v4.8.0

    🚀 IMPORTANT: This release requires PHP 7.1.3 or greater.

    🛠 This is mostly a security/bugfix release, handling some smaller bugs and correcting an issue where users could no longer search on child assets.

    🔒 We have also issued a fix for a security issue discovered in some versions of symfony/http-foundation, and have patched a persistent XSS vulnerability in the image uploads for most models where a malicious authorized user could potentially upload an SVG with a javascript payload. The severity of this issue is reduced due to the fact that the attack requires user interaction. Specifically, the attacker would have to trick an unsuspecting victim into opening the malicious asset model image in a new tab or from within an IFRAME. (Many thanks to Metin Kandemir for reporting that issue.)
