Security upgrades for Geeklog and phpBB2

As with all programs, there are inevitable bugs and fixes necessary with previous releases. Such is the case with two of my favorite PHP-based scripts: Geeklog and phpBB2. Both announced patch updates this month.

It is highly recommended you upgrade your versions immediately.

The team at Geeklog released Geeklog 1.3.11sr1 to address a potential security risk due to an SQL injection vulnerability. More information on this security release, along with the download can be found at http://www.geeklog.net/article.php/geeklog-1.3.11sr1

phpBB Group announced the release of phpBB 2.0.17 which addresses several bugfixes and some low security issues as well as the recently seemingly wide-spread XSS issue (only affecting Internet Explorer). Complete details on the newest release, along with download information can be found at http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=308490
