Andy recently brought the nostalgia mood by republishing the old Alicia wallpapers on the forums. It's about time to show the new colors and let the community breath the freshness of Orion and there is no better way than an introduction with a brand new wallpaper kit!

The new wallpapers are available on the forums in 4 resolutions; 1024x768, 1280x1024, 1440 wide and 1680 wide. We hope it will keep you on the edge while waiting for new developments on the software.

Enjoy!

Over the last two years PHPizabi has been going through some internal hardships about the best way to run the website, the support community and the overall project itself. To help enhance the projects overall status presently and in the future, PHPizabi has been internally restructured.

As a part of the restructuration, Andy (a.k.a. RubberDucky) is now in charge of administering the entire public space including support administration, community interaction and overall structural support. He will also be handling the "creative talents" (human resources) management and several other administrative tasks.

These important changes will allow the software engineering team led by Claude D. (a.k.a. Reality/R) to focus solely on the PHPizabi development without the hassles of day-to-day administration of PHPizabi.

As a part of the changes made to the community, the public channels (forums) have been re-enabled to allow for the community members to have a voice and discuss the actual software and debate of future improvements with other members of the community.

A security vulnerability recently discovered in PHPizabi originally reported by a local administrator has been confirmed and published by the National Vulnerability Database service of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the DHS National Cyber Security Division (US-CERT) in the National Cyber-Alert CVE-2008-3239 . Due to the great visibility of the NVD/NIST portal which disclosed this information, there have been a number of attacks against PHPizabi websites.

Tough we do not intend to release a security fix for this issue at this time, we want to remind our users of the importance of disabling the "REGISTER_GLOBALS" option of their system. This option will not only enable this vulnerability to be exploited but will also open multiple breaches into your system. Note that if your system is configured properly (with "REGISTER_GLOBALS" disabled), this vulnerability does not apply to your website.

Please read through the documentation at PHP.Net to check if your system is configured properly. Contact your system administrator to take appropriate actions in order to void this vulnerability if your system has the "REGISTER_GLOBALS" option enabled.

This vulnerability affects all versions of PHPizabi 0.8 to HFP3 SF1 (included). There is no security fix pack release planned at this time.
