v2.0.10

4 days ago

1. • A partial system.pages.process override in user/config/system.yaml (for example setting only twig: false) no longer silently turns off Markdown and leaves every page rendering its raw source. Because pages.process is a single field in the blueprint, a partial override replaced the whole map and dropped the default markdown: true; core now re-applies that default, so an affected site recovers on update with no change to its config. An explicit markdown: false is still honored.

v2.0.9

4 days ago

1. • [security] A callable directive hidden in a Flex directory's blueprint field can no longer run commands on the server; dynamic field data on Flex types (Flex Pages, Flex Users, Flex Objects) now refuses dangerous functions, closing a path that bypassed the same guard added for page forms in 2.0.7 (GHSA-c4wf-2xxc-68qm).
   • [security] The scheduler webhook trigger now fails closed when no token is configured, so an enabled webhook left without a token can no longer run scheduled jobs for anonymous callers (GHSA-xwv3-2mv2-w33x).
   • Images and links whose filename contains spaces now render when the path is wrapped in angle brackets, for example ![](<My image.jpg>). Fixes getgrav/grav#4197.

v2.0.8

1 week ago

1. • An email or www. URL used as the visible text of a Markdown link is no longer turned into a second, nested link when GFM autolinks are enabled. Fixes getgrav/grav#4191.
   • md5() can once again be called as a Twig function, not just as the |md5 filter, so themes and plugins that generate an id or cache-busting hash with md5(...) keep working instead of failing with an "Unknown function" error. Fixes getgrav/grav-theme-quark2#12.
   • Replacing an image in place, such as swapping the image in a Flex object field, now shows the new image on the site instead of the previously cached version (updated getgrav/image to v4.1.3, which includes the source file's modification time and size in the derivative cache key). Fixes getgrav/grav#4195.

v2.0.7

1 week ago

1. • [security] A page editor can no longer run commands on the server by hiding a callable directive in a form field's settings; dynamic field data now refuses dangerous functions and cannot be tricked into reaching one through a helper (GHSA-fj2p-qj2f-74v5).
   • A page's translatedLanguages() now localizes ancestor slugs too, so a nested translation whose parent folder has a localized slug: produces the fully translated cross-language link instead of leaving parent segments in the current language. Fixes getgrav/grav#4186.
   • Pointing the log stream at environment:// (for example log: environment://logs) no longer crashes the site or bin/grav clear with a "stream must either be a resource or a string" error when the per-environment folder does not exist; logging now falls back to the default logs/ folder instead. Fixes getgrav/grav#4172.
   • The media:// stream now checks the per-environment user/env/<host>/media/ folder before the shared user/media/, so site media stored per environment resolves to the correct URL in the admin and in page content instead of a broken user/media/ link. Fixes getgrav/grav#4188.
   • Large file downloads such as site backups are now streamed to the browser in chunks instead of being loaded into memory all at once, so a download bigger than PHP's memory limit no longer fails with a blank server error. Fixes getgrav/grav-plugin-api#12.
   • Backups initialization no longer runs twice when something that bypasses the normal request middleware (such as the API plugin) also attaches the backup scheduler listener, so the listener is registered only once.
   • Pages accessed with URL parameters such as pagination or taxonomy filters no longer recompile every Twig template on each request, restoring full template caching on exactly the pages that get the most traffic.
   • The per-file compiled cache for YAML and markdown files now loads through its intended opcache fast path, and a source file that has been deleted no longer serves stale cached data.
   • A modular page that outputs trusted theme or plugin markup, such as a form with a reCAPTCHA field, is no longer wrongly blanked by the content security scan, which now checks the editor's own content instead of the finished template output. Fixes getgrav/grav-plugin-form#636.
   • Chaining media actions on page media under the content security scan, such as {{ page.media['x.jpg'].lightbox(1024,768).cropResize(176,176).html() }}, now works instead of being blocked, and the scan's list of allowed media methods stays in step with Grav's documented media actions automatically.
2. • Updating a plugin or theme whose required dependency is held back by a newer Grav or PHP requirement now explains the real fix. Instead of reporting that the needed version is "higher than the latest release" and suggesting a cache refresh, the updater names the newer dependency release and the Grav (or PHP) version it needs, so you know to update Grav first. Relates to getgrav/grav-plugin-admin2#93.
   • Backup profiles now always appear in the scheduler where each can be switched on or off with the Enabled/Disabled toggle, instead of a profile staying hidden until its schedule was turned on; the profile's schedule setting seeds the default state and an explicit toggle takes precedence.
   • Frontend requests are noticeably faster across the board: the scheduler, backups machinery, error page renderer and logger now initialize only when actually used instead of on every page view, cutting over 50 PHP files from a typical request.
   • The filesystem scan that checks pages for changes now reuses its result for a couple of seconds (configurable with cache.check.interval), so busy sites no longer stat every page file on every single request; content edits still show up right away in normal editing workflows and admin saves remain instant.
   • Configuration, blueprint and language file lists honor the same freshness window instead of checking every tracked file's timestamp three times per request, and theme blueprints no longer load at all on normal frontend page views.
   • Class autoloading is faster: source installs get an optimized class map, APCu is suggested so the existing autoloader cache setting can engage, and plugin autoloaders no longer sit in front of the core one where every core class lookup had to pass through them first.
   • Rendering a page with cached content no longer loads its whole media collection up front, the pages index no longer stores pre-computed metadata for every page, and relative markdown links resolve their target page directly instead of building the full page list per link.
   • Assorted hot-path trims: string helpers use fast native functions for the common case, asset rendering skips per-asset integrity work when the feature is off, the site root URL is computed once per request instead of per asset, and debugger timers cost nothing when the debugger is disabled.
   • New experimental opt-in page index (pages.lazy_index: true): pages, routes, children lists, sort orders and the taxonomy map load on demand from a per-page index instead of one large cache blob that has to be fully unserialized on every request, making per-request cost flat as sites grow: a 2,000 page test site renders as fast as a 2 page one and uses a quarter of the memory; SQLite powers the index when available with a pure PHP fallback, and the default behavior is completely unchanged until the flag is enabled.
   • Page collection filters (visible, routable, published, module) now use menu flags recorded in the page index, so building a navigation menu that filters a folder to its visible pages no longer loads every hidden sibling first. On a 500 post blog under the Quark theme this cut the pages built for a page view from all 507 to 7 and roughly halved memory; it helps every site, most of all large ones with the experimental page index enabled.
   • Sorting a page collection by date, title, or another common field now reads that value from the page index instead of loading every page in the collection just to read one field, and on single language sites the automatic translated filter that every collection applies no longer loads any pages at all. With the experimental page index enabled, a blog post showing a related posts grid dropped from loading every post on the site to only the handful it displays.
   • The setting that scans page content for XSS moved to security.content.xss_scan_output, since it applies to all page content rather than only Twig in content; the previous security.twig_content.xss_scan_output location keeps working and is moved to the new one automatically on upgrade.

v2.0.6

2 weeks ago

1. • [security] Flex user avatars stored under user/accounts/<username>/ (folder storage) are now served too; the 2.0.5 avatar carve-out only covered the flatfile user/accounts/avatars/ layout, so folder-storage avatars kept returning a 403. Existing sites self-heal on upgrade. Fixes getgrav/grav#4185.

v2.0.5

2 weeks ago

1. • A page's translatedLanguages() now returns each language's own route, so a translation with a localized slug: produces the correct cross-language link instead of repeating the default language's URL. Fixes getgrav/grav#4183.
   • [security] Profile avatars display again instead of returning a 403; the folder hardening that locked down user/accounts now makes a narrow exception for avatar images while account data such as password hashes stays blocked, and existing sites self-heal on upgrade. Fixes getgrav/grav#4185.
   • Loading a page no longer fails with a "Failed to write cache file" error when Grav can't save the compiled template cache, such as on a shared folder, a full disk, or during a save-then-reload race; the page still renders and the problem is logged instead. Fixes getgrav/grav#4184.

v2.0.4

2 weeks ago

1. • Plugins can now register trusted iframe hosts so legitimate provider embeds (such as YouTube) are no longer blanked by the content XSS scan on hardened sites.
   • Added an onXssTrustedMarkup event that lets a plugin exempt its own rendered markup from the content XSS scan without weakening it for editor-authored content.
2. • [security] Grav's .htaccess rules blocking sensitive folders and files are now matched case-insensitively, closing a bypass where, on case-insensitive filesystems (Windows, macOS, some Docker mounts), a differently-cased request could reach files such as account and config YAML; existing sites are healed on upgrade (GHSA-vwg3-w8w3-pc79).
   • [security] The user/data folder now ships a media-aware allowlist that serves uploaded assets such as images, fonts, CSS and JS while keeping data files like YAML and JSON blocked, and upgrading widens an over-narrow allowlist from earlier security updates in place so legitimate theme assets stop returning 403. Fixes getgrav/grav#4169.
   • [security] The Twig regex_replace filter now returns its input unchanged instead of null when a pattern hits a PCRE error such as a backtrack-limit, so a catastrophic pattern can no longer break output (GHSA-37f3-6p89-6qr9).
   • bin/gpm self-upgrade no longer fails on shared-folder setups such as a VirtualBox shared folder, where the bin directory holding the running script could not be deleted, by overwriting the upgrade files in place instead. Fixes getgrav/grav#4171.
   • Debug messages logged during API requests now reach the Admin2 API debug panel and Clockwork even when the debugger is set to PHP DebugBar, which can only display on normal pages. Fixes getgrav/grav-plugin-admin2#76.
   • Resizing an image larger than its original size with ?resize= no longer pads it onto an oversized canvas with a white border, returning the image at its natural size instead unless ?forceresize is used. Fixes getgrav/grav#4173.
   • Turning off the Twig sandbox no longer breaks pages or modules that contain a form, which previously failed with a "SandboxExtension extension is not enabled" error. Fixes getgrav/grav#4175.
   • A blueprint validation error now names the value it rejected, so a message like "Invalid input in Process" explains what actually caused it instead of leaving you guessing. Relates to getgrav/grav#4178.
   • Adding a blocked item to the Twig sandbox allowlist from the Tools report now clears that block from the recent-blocks list, so a resolved entry no longer lingers as if nothing happened. Fixes getgrav/grav-plugin-admin2#85.

v2.0.3

3 weeks ago

1. • Added an optional system.session.read_and_close setting that releases the session as soon as it has been read, so a site's simultaneous requests no longer queue up one behind another waiting on the session; off by default.
2. • A bin/gpm self-upgrade that stops while replacing core files now names the exact file or folder it could not remove and the reason why, and points out when the file is owned by a different user than the one running the command, which is the usual cause of an upgrade that works from the admin but fails on the command line. Fixes getgrav/grav#4162.

v2.0.2

3 weeks ago

1. • [security] ZIP extraction in both Direct Install and the internal archiver now enforces the uncompressed-size limit against the bytes actually written, rather than the size each entry claims, so an archive that understates its real size can no longer slip a decompression bomb past the limit (GHSA-8h9x-89f2-m7x3).
   • [security] Editor-authored Twig in page content can no longer read configuration secrets by dumping the config object through a filter such as print_r or json_encode, closing a sandbox bypass that exposed plugin credentials and API keys (GHSA-mc5q-6hpj-rp7j).
   • A failed bin/gpm self-upgrade now reports the specific reason it stopped and records the full details in logs/grav.log, instead of showing a generic "Unknown error" with nothing to act on. Fixes getgrav/grav#4158.
   • A page that displays inline SVG or MathML icons, such as the svg-icon shortcode or GitHub-style alert callouts, no longer renders blank when page-content Twig processing is enabled, because the render-time security scan now skips that legitimate icon markup while still catching injected scripts around it.

v2.0.1

3 weeks ago

1. • [security] ZIP archives extracted through the internal ZipArchiver are now rejected when their contents exceed safe limits on total uncompressed size, file count, or folder nesting depth, closing a second extraction path with the same decompression-bomb risk that was fixed for Direct Install (GHSA-928x-9mpw-8h56).
   • [security] Editor-authored Twig in page content now has its rendered output re-checked for XSS, closing a bypass where a payload assembled at render time (such as {{ "on" ~ "error" }}) passed the source validator and then emitted live markup (GHSA-2c4f-86xc-cr74).
   • A page marked Visible in the admin no longer vanishes from navigation after saving, because a blank visibility setting now falls back to its normal default instead of being read as hidden. Fixes getgrav/grav#4153.
