Well, in the world there are many people that has quite a lot free time (even they have time to take a look to yapig's source code!) and help us to live in a more safe computer software world. So some vulnerabilities have been discovered in yapig's code. You can take a look on them on:

For some days the packaged version 0.94 was in reality 0.93 instead. If you donwloaded 0.94 recently and appears 0.93 as the script version you must download the script again.

There is a bug that makes files created by yapig impossible to delete via ftp or ssh. This is because of the default user mask of the user running PHP. It is already solved on the CVS version, but for users that have 0.93u (latest) or previous, there is a patch on:

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1107399&group_id=93674&atid=605078

It's has been ages since I could update the CVS. Since 0.93 it is running again, I will try to keep it up to date. The module that will be with the last version will be yapig (all lowercase). There are other modules on the CVS, but forget them.

After a long time we come back with a new release. This time many bugs have been fixed and has some little new features. Here is the changelog:

Remember you must update your yapig to version 0.92.2 (due to security bugs)

During August Acidbits found a PHP insertion vulnerability, he sent me an email, post a bug (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1007246&group_id=93674&atid=605076) and added a report on security pages such as SecurityFocus (http://securityfocus.com/bid/10891). I have been on holidays so I couldn't release a patched version before.

This is a heavy security bug, so users with versions previous to 0.92.2 must update their Yapig. There is an Exploit available so even script kiddies can play.... read more

wReckEr has upload his modified version of YaPiG 0.92b. You can view a demo on http://www.mahesh.net/gallery
The main changes are:

* Instead of a form for adding comment on the same page
as the photo, there is now a link at the bottom '[add comment]' that opens the form in a different pop-up window. After adding the comments, the thanks page displays a button to close the window and at the same time re-fresh the image page, so that the newly added comment can be seen. Also the pop-up
window displays the thumbnail of the current photo.... read more

Yesterday, it was reported a very heavy problem related to yapig's security. Now, it is already solved. There was an install.php bug that allowed reinstalling to anyuser. Users using any 0.9x (including 0.92b stable) must update or remove install.php on their gallery.

Upgrading from 0.8x to 0.9x documentation available here:
http://yapig.sourceforge.net/doc/upgrade.html

YaPiG Users MUST remove install.php or rename it to install.txt (for example). This is because it does not check if another installation has been done.

Sorry for the inconvenience. On next release it will be solved.

Thanks to Megajoy we have the translation of yapig 0.92b into Bazilian Portuguese.
