Security flaw in htmlscript
From: joe () HTMLSCRIPT COM (Joseph Jay Austin)

This message is in response to the security breach regarding our product, htmlscript, that was published in this list. We became aware earlier today of a security flaw in the htmlscript 2.99x distribution and certain earlier releases. This flaw allows people to get a copy of the system password (and other) files using our product. We are fixing this problem and will be making a binary only distribution of v2.9932 available to all licensees of the product. The current shipping version of the product (htmlscript v3.x/Miva 1.x) does not have this security flaw. All customers have the option of getting a copy of the latest release or a binary only fix of the 2.99x distribution. Both are, naturally, available at no charge. Customers wanting access to these binaries should contact support () htmlscript com or should call our main number. Due to the serious nature of this problem we urge all htmlscript licensees to make this upgrade their highest priority. ---------------------- Htmlscript Corporation Joe Austin, President joe () htmlscript com http://www.htmlscript.com 619-490-2570:main line 619-490-2571:direct ----------------------
