It has come to our attention that a potential vulnerability may exist in "sources/post.php". This affects versions: IPB 2.0.0, IPB 2.0.1 and IPB 2.0.2.

We have updated the main download zip and as the vulnerability only exists in one file we felt that a version increment wasn't required. The encoded trial has been updated too.

To update your IPB 2.x board, simply download the attached zip file, expand and upload "sources/post.php" over the one on your installation.

This completes the security update.
