| XF 2.3 Released (Premium) XenForo 2.3.9 Released (Security Fix) patch 2.3.9

The following public templates have had changes:

• attachment_macros
• bb_code_tag_attach
• lightbox_macros

Where necessary, the merge system within the "outdated templates" page should be used to integrate these changes.

The issues identified are as follows:

• Prevention of a possible stored XSS (cross-site scripting) exploit related to BB code rendering (thank you to Antisocial)
• Prevention of a possible XSS exploit related to lightbox usage in posts (thank you UwU)
• Prevention of a possible RCE (remote code execution) exploit via authenticated, but malicious, admin users (thank you UwU)

We recommend doing a full upgrade to resolve the issue, but a patch can be applied manually. See below for further details.

Upload patch files

• Download 239-patch.zip
• Extract the .zip file
• Upload the contents of the upload directory to the root of your XenForo installation
• Rebuild master data by logging in to your install URL, or running xf:rebuild-master-data on the command line

Note: If you decide to patch the files instead of doing full upgrades, your "File health check" will report these files as having "Unexpected contents". Because these files no longer contain the same contents your version of XF was shipped with, this is expected and can be safely ignored.
