Version/Release 2.1.6

• [2020.07.06; Maikuolan]: Performed some minor refactoring.

• [2020.07.11; Bug-fix; Maikuolan]: The code for scanning zip files was treating directories as files, which wasn't affecting the overall results or performance of the scan process, but was adding some small amount of pointless and unwanted overhead to it; Fixed.

• [2020.07.12; Maikuolan]: Added a major version checker to the front-end updates page.

• [2020.07.13; Bug-fix; Maikuolan]: PHPMailer notifications would encode incorrectly when dealing with non-ANSI data (i.e., when using languages other than English); Fixed.

• [2020.07.16; DEPRECATION/REMOVAL; Maikuolan]: hosts-file.net is dead. All related hpHosts content and configuration directives removed accordingly.

• [2020.08.04; Maikuolan]: Addressed a potential compatibility problem with installations where PHP has its output proxied through to a different host. Also slightly improved the aesthetics of the front-end, and changed the logout link to a logout button.

• [2020.08.06; Bug-fix; Maikuolan]: Two lines in the updater code were swapped the wrong way around, which could cause notices to appear sometimes; Fixed.

• [2020.08.06; Maikuolan]: Addressed a potential problem with calculating the number of bytes removed when updating components and slightly refactored the front-end functions file.

• [2020.09.30; Maikuolan]: Synced up common classes.

phpMussel v2.1.3

Version/Release 2.1.3

• [2020.04.13; Maikuolan]: Performed some minor refactoring.

• [2020.04.14; Bug-fix; Maikuolan]: The phpMussel switch file isn't a signature file, but unintentionally matched positive for the phpMussel signature file magic number, allowing a very small but real risk that it would be interpreted by phpMussel as a signature file, causing PHP errors to be generated; Fixed.

• [2020.05.07; Maikuolan]: Some very minor aesthetic improvements.

• [2020.05.16; Maikuolan]: Slightly improved the safety of some included hyperlinks by way of including rel tags like noopener, noreferrer, external. Added the ability for configuration defaults to define regular expressions to be applied to their own values through preg_replace, thus complimenting the existing auto-typing functionality (phpMussel won't yet be using this functionality for its own configuration defaults, but it is added with the intent to provide a mechanism by which plugins may be able to provide additional safeguards of their own against bad configuration values).

• [2020.05.28; Bug-fix; Maikuolan]: The front-end accounts page was incorrectly reporting argon2id passwords as invalid; Fixed.

• [2020.06.02; Maikuolan]: Worked on some more minor aesthetic improvements. Also added some configuration filters (based on the work done last month) to some specific potentially error-prone configuration directives to help reduce the risk of erroneous values being specified there.

• [2020.06.03; Maikuolan]: Slightly strengthened the sanity checks performed by the front-end updates page when it verifies components.

• [2020.06.07; Maikuolan]: Very slightly improved the logic at the front-end updates page for determining whether a component is active or inactive. Also made the upload handler uninstallable.

• [2020.06.10; Bug-fix; Maikuolan]: Wrong metadata counts sometimes reported by the front-end signatures information page; Fixed.

• [2020.06.11; Maikuolan]: Slightly improved some PHPDoc annotations.

• [2020.06.14; Maikuolan]: Adjusted some potentially misleading L10N data.

• [2020.06.15; Maikuolan]: Performed some minor refactoring.
