This bug fix releases resolves further HTML entity encoding issues, the use of custom expiration options in the email function, pasting into the password dialog on pastes with attachments and also updates the identicon library to 2.0.0, which increases the minimum required PHP version to 5.6.

Benefits of switching to the new release

We recommend to upgrade 1.3.x instances to address these issues.

Update procedure

As usual, you can download the archive for a manual upgrade and can find more details in the installation instructions.

We also offer a Docker container that includes the recommended secure setup with the non-essential files and data outside of the web servers document root.

Changes since version 1.3.3
