[MediaWiki-announce] MediaWiki 1.7.1 released

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 MediaWiki 1.7.1 is a security and bugfix maintenance release of the Summer 2006 snapshot: A potential HTML/JavaScript-injection vulnerability in a debugging script has been fixed. Only versions and configurations of PHP vulnerable to the $GLOBALS overwrite vulnerability are affected. As a workaround for existing installs, profileinfo.php may simply be deleted if it's not being used. * Fix for 'emailconfirmed' implicit user group * Fix for upgrades on some versions of MySQL 4.0.x * Fixed potential XSS in profileinfo.php * Installer now shows clear error message about old PHP versions rather than a confusing parse error Note that MediaWiki 1.7 and above require PHP 5. If you are stuck with PHP 4, please install MediaWiki 1.6.8.
