New Search Filters, Sitemap Improvements
VaultWiki 4.0.4 allows users to search your wiki based on the kinds of wiki content they want (or don't want) to see. Users can filter attachments, templates, and other kinds of pages from searches. Search results will now also treat synonyms and feeds as candidates for search results.Feeds now appear in the wiki's sitemap files. This makes entries via the new feature more accessible via third-party search engines.
Add Multiple Articles to Containers
VaultWiki 4.0.4 has updated the "Add Existing" menu for containers like books, categories, and feeds. You can now select multiple articles at a time, which makes these tasks much easier and faster, especially when you have a new category that you want to connect to 50 other pages.More Vulnerabilities
VaultWiki versions 4.0.1-4.0.3 contain a Denial of Service Amplification vulnerability in the Custom Icon system (see: Photo of Loris), which a malicious user can exploit to place all available PHP child processes into a busy state fairly quickly.This issue is resolved by the following Patch Level releases:
- 4.0.3 Patch Level 1
- 4.0.2 Patch Level 4
- 4.0.1 Patch Level 7
We also discovered that the last set of patches for VaultWiki 4.x only partially resolved one of the addressed security issues.
This issue is resolved by the following Patch Level releases:
- 4.0.0 Patch Level 6
- 4.0.0 RC 5 Patch Level 5
- 4.0.0 RC 4 Patch Level 6
- 4.0.0 RC 3 Patch Level 7
- 4.0.0 RC 2 Patch Level 7
- 4.0.0 RC 1 Patch Level 7
We highly recommend that all users running VaultWiki 4.x in a production environment upgrade to a patched release as soon as possible.
