2.4.8-rc1

Overview

Security (Moderate Severity): More solid relative/site URL checks (related to "BackURL" redirection).
Security (Moderate Severity): Ensure javascript content type is sent in form responses. If content type is html, and the javascript contains script tags within the content, this content will be executed.
Security (Low Severity): Fixed remote code execution vuln in install.php due to inserting unescaped user data into mysite/_config.php. Not critical because install.php is required to be removed on a SilverStripe installation anyway
