UBB.classic™ 6.6.2 just hit the Member's Area at Infopop. Looks like there was good reason not to wait until 6.7 was released.

That good reason is a security fix in ubb_profile.cgi and public_edit_profile.pl. The new important areas are all marked with comments containing the string "6.6.2" for easy location and splicing using your file comparison tool of choice.

Please be sure to upgrade as soon as possible.

Was this in reaction to some big hack attack that I missed?

not to my knowledge, but some companies like patching things before it's widely exploited (ie not Microsoft)

We were notified of the issue. We are not the only products to be impacted, nor are all of the products just bulletin boards...
