[Updates] Joomla! 3.4.6 released


Monday, December 14th, 2015 - Security, Updates

The Joomla! developers have released an updated version of their Joomla! script, Joomla! 3.4.6

Joomla! 3.4.6 Released

This release fixes a major security bug in Joomla!

This security bug is also present in prior Joomla! releases, Joomla! 1.5 and Joomla! 2.5. But since Joomla! 1.5 and Joomla! 2.5 are end-of-life, no security patches are being released for those versions.

Users on our servers that have been using these outdated Joomla! versions have been sent several notices about this. Because of these notices and this recent security issue, this may be the final nail in the coffin for Joomla! 1.5 and Joomla! 2.5 scripts. We will likely have to start disabling Joomla! scripts that are end-of-life. We apologize for having to do this, but advice to upgrade your Joomla! scripts have gone ignored and the dangers of allowing these exploitable scripts outweighs any benefit from a server security standpoint.

If you are not using Joomla! 3.4.6, please upgrade as soon as possible
