5.2 Release Notes
DSpace 5.2 is a bug fix release to resolve several issues found in DSpace 5.1. As it only provides only bug fixes, DSpace 5.2 should constitute an easy upgrade from DSpace 5.0 or 5.1 for most users. No database changes or additional configuration changes should be necessary when upgrading from DSpace 5.0 or 5.1 to 5.2.

5.1 Release Notes
Note | ||
---|---|---|
| ||
DSpace 5.1 contains security fixes for both the XMLUI and JSPUI. To ensure your 5.x site is secure, we highly recommend all DSpace 5.x users upgrade to DSpace 5.1. We also highly recommend removing any "allowLinking=true" settings from your Tomcat's <Context> configuration. Previously our installation documentation erroneously listed examples which included "allowLinking=true", while the Tomcat documentation lists it as a possible security concern. The XMLUI Directory Traversal Vulnerability (see below) is also exacerbated by this setting. |
