Admidio 3.1 is ready for download.
Many thanks to those of you who help us to get a stable version 3.1 of Admidio.
Some of the major enhancements in this version:
PHP7 compatibility
This is one of the main reasons for this release. Since PHP7 was released at the end of November and Admidio 3.0 is not compatible we want to release a compatible version as soon as possible. So with Admidio 3.1 you can use PHP7 and we don't have change the minimum requirements. You can still use PHP 5.3.
Security improvements
With this release we have added some security related enhancements.
- Passwords are now encoded and stored in the database with the bcrypt algorithm
- check session ip address to prevent session hijacking
- don't show specific error message if password is wrong. always show error message username or password wrong
- refresh auto login id on every script call
- create a more unique and secure id
- delete all auto login from user if count of invalid auto login > 3
- Always give positive feedback when requesting a new password to prevent evil users for scaning valid email addresses
Further integration of 3.0 features
We have continue to integrate the new features that we introduce with 3.0.
- Upload files with the new file upload dialog in download module
- New authorization dialog in download module
- New dialog for MyLists
- Bootstrap print view in events module
- and much more ...
The minimum requirements are the same as of Admidio 3.0:
PHP 5.3.7
MySQL 5.0.3
Flash not required anymore ☺
