5.2.0 – 10/Jul/2023

• SECURITY: Remove authentication data from the stacktrace before saving to the database. This defect meant that a site administrator had the potential, between releases 5.1.9 to 5.2.0 (which purges the existing data), to know what site users’ passwords are. This information has limited value (an admin can already reset anyone’s password) except insofar as the passwords may be re-used by users on other sites. In that “hostile admin” scenario, your site has other problems (since the hostile admin has a whole raft of equivalent ways of causing mischief to users, especially if not on multisite where a site admin is potentially not a super admin and may not be able to install or configure plugins). This changelog has been expanded in response to incorrect reports which suggested a wider problem (for example, they did not mention that the attacker needs to already be logged in as an admin to read the log, or that upgrading to 5.2.0 deletes the affected data).
• SECURITY: Set tighter restrictions on what subsite admins can do in a multisite.
• FIX: After editing a file reset permissions back to the original permissions

• TWEAK: Added ‘aios_audit_log_event_user_ip’ filter to allow filtering of IP addresses in the audit log

Exploitation would require an attacker to craft a link specifically for your site, and persuade you to click it whilst logged in; if you did so, this could result in bulk actions being carried out on AIOS list tables (e.g. delete entries from blocked IP address lists), with the attacker being restricted to deleting entries by database ID numbers that he cannot know directly (e.g. 15, 16, 17) and not IP address (e.g. 100.101.102.103).
