FacileForms 1.4.6 Security Release Print E-mail
Written by Peter Koch   
Wednesday, 28 June 2006

After the latest SQL injection vulnaribilities in Mambo and Joomla!, the codebase of FacileForms was reviewed for similar security holes. Some potential problems have been identified and fixed in the security release 1.4.6, and it is highly recommended to every user of FacileForms to upgrade ASAP. FacileForms 1.4.6 is available now in the Download Section.

Custom PHP code in forms need also get reviewed in case you have created forms using server side scripting. Read suggestions how to identify and fix potential security holes here. Find the overview of all changes in 1.4.6 in the Release Notes.

First of all: FF is a great tool and I love the features and flexibility it offers to the user! Congratulation to all developers! 
 
I installed now the Security release 1.4.6 and when sending the form I received following message: 
 
Not Found 
The requested URL /cgi-system/index.php was not found on this server.  
 
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
 
 
So I had to switch back to the old version. 
Is there anything I missed?

Please use the forum for technical support. The same issue is logged there and should be fixed now in 1.4.6b.

I love this tool and I thank you for your hard work. Nice to see you more closely in tune with the Joomla world, which I think is a nice thing. What happened with the script kiddies yesterday?

Hi, I am a newbie and I had just installed the ff and was doing the tutorial. 
 
Now I downloaded the new ff ... do I have to disinstall the old one and install the new one? :roll  
 
thanks

Hi, I tried to install the 1.1.6 version. I already have the 1.1.4 version and I have made my form with it. I tried to install the 1.1.6 version from the installer in Joomla, however, it will not allow me to install. in the meanwhile, I didn't want to lose all the work I have done, so I dare not uninstall the old version and install the new version. 
 
Any advice?

In Joomla 1.011 I cannot use Facileforms 1.4.4 anymore. I get Fatal Errors when opening a form to edit. 
After upgrading to 1.4.6g I can design and edit forms, however after submitting the email works OK, but NO RECORD is found when i open the Record Manager.
