Changes Details

Despite the principles of the project’s roadmap, by popular demand, and as an exception, there is one new feature that was implemented in the version of 1.6.6

  • support of CAPTCHA in pre-chat survey.

Beside that, in the new version there were corrected a serious security issues. In particular:

  • fixed multiple XSS vulnerabilities;
  • fixed multiple SQL Injection vulnerabilities;
  • fixed CSRF vulnerabilities (including CVE-2012-0829);
  • improved algorithms of files handling;
  • improved algorithms of generation of hashes and unique IDs, switched to a salted hashes;
  • switched to a standard means of protection of the important cookies.

And finally, in order to eliminate confusion, we completely abandoned the old project name everywhere: in cookies’ and variables’ names, and in filepaths and URLs.

The release contains a lot of security updates, so the migration is strongly encouraged.

Attention! During migration to the new version one will need to regenerate all the call buttons.
