This issue is already quite widely publicized and quite frankly “we’re handling it and removing this” is a much more harmful response than I would hope to see. Especially as the admins of that instance have not yet upgraded the frontend version to apply the urgent fix.
It’s not like this was a confidential bug fix, this is a zero day being actively exploited. Please be more cooperative and open regarding these issues in your own administration if you’re hosting an instance. 🙏
There’s already an update available, but it’s for
lemmy-uinotlemmy. Just update the tag to0.18.2-rc.1and you’ll have this fix.Yep, that’s the plan! Thanks for letting me know. Lemmy is awesome and I am having so much fun with it. I expect it only to get better as the days and weeks progress.
According to https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/commits/main, the bug was fixed with https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/commit/00f9f79a44887869dcdc3fe5bd1dabbbdc080cec and is part of release 0.18.1, right? I usually wouldn´t recommend to install the release candidate, except for testing, but since this is still 0.X anyway…
This is probably a dumb question but I used the Ansible install for Lemmy and just did a git pull and --become again but UI wasn’t updated so I assume 0.18.2 isn’t in release yet (which is fine) but is there documentation on updating UI? I see where it’s showing in the docker-compose.yml file but I am uncertain what to do after changing it there (or if that’s the right place to change it).
