This document describes fixed and known issues, supported platforms, and acknowledgments for Sugar 6.5.18.

Fixed Issues

Sugar 6.5.18 is a security update released to address certain security vulnerabilities identified during our routine QA checks. 
We strongly recommend that you install this update at the earliest opportunity.  While we have not experienced any reported incidents relating to these vulnerabilities to date, failure to install this update could leave you exposed to the following types of malicious third party attacks:
  • Authenticated admin users may cause arbitrary code to be executed.
  • Authenticated admin users may initiate a cross-site scripting attack.
These vulnerabilities have been addressed in release 6.5.18 which is available for download from the Download Manager.
Administrators are strongly encouraged to upgrade their Sugar instances running 6.5.x or earlier to 6.5.18 to prevent potential exploitation of these weaknesses.
