I'm happy to announce the release of version 1.1.6.3 of WikkaWiki, an important security upgrade available for download from the Wikka website.

The Wikka Developer Team have been working hard over the last months on 1.1.7, a major release that will feature a number of important enhancements (both in terms of functionality and configurability). We have recently decided to make available to our user community a number of security fixes already included in 1.1.7 as a dedicated release.

Wikka 1.1.6.3 does not introduce new functionality, but several patches against potential security issues. These include, among others, a native PHP vulnerability (i.e. not a Wikka bug) affecting virtually any application running on PHP<5.2, that has been brilliantly patched thanks to the joint efforts of the Wikka and GeSHi Developer teams.

We strongly recommend Wikka users to upgrade to 1.1.6.3. Upgrading via the installer takes only a few minutes and will make your wiki safer.
