NewsopenDesk 1.11.2: OpenProject closes security vulnerability
The update to openDesk 1.11.2 includes a fix for a critical security issue in OpenProject.
Projects
The update to OpenProject version 16.6.4 fixes a critical bug in OpenProject's PDF exporter, which allows attackers with upload permissions to access sensitive file information on the server such as configuration files or private project data. For further information see here.
Workaround
If you need a temporary workaround before upgrading, revoke PDF export permissions for users.
Configuration
Additionally, the update to openDesk 1.11.2 increases the standard memory limit for the OpenProject container in the cluster from 3 GB to 4 GB following OpenProject recommendations, fixing a memory issue that caused server errors when accessing OpenProject with only 10-20 users.
