The Khoros Communities 25.8 release includes several important security improvements and bug fixes.

  • [Classic] Fixed a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting embedded YouTube videos on community pages. 
  • [Aurora] Certain specific custom access permissions was blocking user registration, due to attempting to verify permissions before the user was registered. This has been addressed so that permissions are checked in the correct sequence.
  • [Aurora] Fixed an issue where users were unable to join Zoom meetings when registration was set to "required"; users would instead see an error message.
  • [Aurora] Fixed an issue with headers and footers appearing multiple times on some community pages.
  • [Aurora] Addressed an Aurora GraphQL API issue where certain custom fields were omitted from responses. These values now appear correctly.
  • [Aurora] Resolved an issue where the "CurrentUser" endpoint returned information about the anonymous user, not the actual current user, when using the Authorization header method of authentication.

  • Also, this post indicates that this release 25.08, but my staging site is on 25.8. What is the correct version number for this release?

    I've learned from my CSM that 25.8 and 25.08 are the same release, and 25.00008 would also be the same release. (but 25.0.8 (with additional) would be a different (more minor) release). I'd appreciate consistency in the use of XX.X or XX.0X (instead of both), but I guess I'll survive (bigger fish to fry!! 🙃)

  • Have you resolved the login issue where users are being repeatedly logged out of the community? Could we get some visibility or updates on the status of this issue?
    Thank you!

    I've update the release notes to remove the 0 to try and be more consistent!
