Re: [phpList-developers] Request for write access to the plugin wiki

[Mariana B. <ma...@ph...>]

Hello Alex,

thank you for your contribution!

Your user permissions on the wiki have been updated and you should be 
able to add the plugin that you have developed there.

Thanks for sharing the plugin on this mailing list, but I would suggest 
sharing the news with the users of the phpList users forum. There are 
hundreds of active phpList users there. You can find it at

https://discuss.phplist.org/

Thanks :-) . Sorry, it took me a while to figure out how this was done.
It's done with an Apache rewrite, which makes is slightly less
accessible for most people. But I'm trying to put it into the docker
version, so hopefully that will increase exposure again. I'd really like
to pick up the API work again and give it a bit of momentum.

no, it's not. This project [1] integrated a old version of the phpList
core rewrite and does not work at all with the current core rewrite.

The last meaningful commit is from 2015, while the current rewrite of
the phpList core started in 2017.

no, it does not (unless you rewrite the phplist-plugin-restapi-core
project from the ground).

Actually, I was wrong. The Rest API integration is not with a "standard
plugin" like the first one. Instead it's with an Apache rewrite

https://www.phplist.org/manual/books/phplist-manual/page/api-and-integrations

It took me this long to catch up on that work :-)

Time to get it moving again.

Actually, looking into it further, isn't it that this is a way to have
the phplist/core project as a plugin to the phpLIst3 systems?

I think we should keep that, as it will allow using the new system in
existing installations.

Ah, I see what you mean,

We have

https://github.com/phpList/phplist-plugin-restapi

https://github.com/phpList/rest-api

https://github.com/phpList/phplist-plugin-restapi-core

So, three rest apis, and you're suggesting to retire one of them. Sounds
good to me.

just to make sure there hasn't been a misunderstanding: You are aware
that I'm referring to the REST API from 2015 that's using code from the
PhpList core (based on Symfony 2) that has long been removed, not the
REST API I developed (based on Symfony 3)?

Re: [phpList-developers] Marking the old REST plugin repository as archived

[Michiel D. <mi...@ph...>]

I actually would like to revive it, and see if we can find someone to
take it on. I do think it's a good direction of work, so let's not just
yet mark it as archived.

I will work to include it in the docker builds and that may create
interest for it.

If you want, you can take yourself off the list for alerts.

[phpList-developers] Marking the old REST plugin repository as archived

[Oliver K. <ol...@ph...>]

Dear all,

I recently received some automatic security alerts for this repository:

<https://github.com/phpList/phplist-plugin-restapi-core>

(This is first, abandoned rewrite of the REST API.)

As this repository is not maintained anymore, I have disabled the
security alerts.

I'd also like to mark that repository as archived so it's transparent
that no development will happen for it anymore.

If nobody objects, I'll do this after October 1st.

Best,


Oli

Re: [phpList-developers] Travis builds

[Michiel D. <mi...@ph...>]

This is resolved now, including PHP5.4, but I had to fix behat on an
older version.

When we remove support for PHP5.4, we should go back to @stable.

Ok, it's passing now. I had to remove PHP5.4 from the builds, as that
threw a parse error in the Behat code.

I do think that should be fine by now.

Hi All

The phpList travis builds were failing due to the way we had set up
testing with Chrome.

This commit fixes that:

[phpList-developers] phpList 3.5.1 Released: Security release

[Suela P. <su...@ph...>]

A new update for phpList has been released today to address a recently
reported vulnerability in the system that verifies a password when an
administrator logs in.

As a result, attackers can potentially gain access by using a carefully
constructed, but incorrect, password.

This vulnerability is present in all versions before 3.5.1 and everyone
using a version before 3.5.1 is strongly recommended to upgrade.

If you are running on version 3.4.7 or later you can use the Automatic
Updater to update your installation, or see the Download page
<https://www.phplist.org/download-phplist/>for full installation and
upgrade instructions.  All phpList hosted customers have been patched
for this vulnerability.

You can follow any updates on the issue on this forum thread:
https://discuss.phplist.org/t/phplist-3-5-1-released-security-release/5912

We want to thank Suvadip Kar for reporting and submitting the fix for
the issue.

Thanks,

Suela,
phpList

[phpList-developers] phpList 3.4.8 Release Candidate ready for testing

[Suela P. <su...@ph...>]

*New phpList 3.4.8 is on its way*

A Release Candidate for the upcoming phpList 3.4.8 is now available for
testing. 

*Changes to test*

On this release candidate support for phpMailer 6 is added -- thanks to
@duncanc <dcameron.me.uk/phplist>.


Among other changes, PHPMailer 6 now requires PHP 5.5+ and it uses
namespaces, which makes it backwards-incompatible.

Changes implemented by @duncan <dcameron.me.uk/phplist> to the
PHPlistMailer class make it possible to use either PHPMailer version 5
or version 6 depending on a config setting (default values is set to
"false").
If you want to check the changes in more details please refer to the
pull request <https://github.com/phpList/phplist3/pull/608> and the
mantis issue <https://mantis.phplist.org/view.php?id=19845>.

their changelog here
<https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/blob/master/changelog.md>.
