# 2.4.3 (2010-11-11)
## Overview
* Fixed a security issue where destructive controller actions are not correctly secured against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF). This affects various CMS interfaces, as well as classes based on TableListField or ComplexTableField.
* Enhance the protection of the assets/ directory in both IIS and Apache by including a file type whitelist.
* Compatibility with PHPUnit 3.5
* Allow direct test execution through the "phpunit" binary, in addition to the existing "sake" executable and TestRunner class.
* Misc. fixes to validation in date-based form fields, as well as better formatting of dates in non-default locales.
## Upgrading Notes
### Important: If you are running PHP as FastCGI with Apache
Your development environment, or production web host may be running PHP as FastCGI with Apache. If this is the case,
there is a regression in 2.4.3 which will break your site. There are two ways to resolve this problem:
- Don't upgrade to 2.4.3 for now, until 2.4.4 is released
- Patch the assets/.htaccess file like this: http://open.silverstripe.org/changeset/113809
This does **NOT** affect IIS, or other web servers that don't understand .htaccess files.
If you're not sure whether PHP is running as FastCGI in your server environment, please check the output of phpinfo().
The easiest way to do this is to open mysite/_config.php and add phpinfo() to the bottom of the file, then browse to
your site to see the environment information.

### Important: Add manual request forgery protection to destructive controller actions
Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) allows an attacker to initiate unauthorized actions against a victim with a valid
login to a target site in the same browser session, e.g. a login to SilverStripe CMS ([read more about
CSRF](http://shiflett.org/articles/cross-site-request-forgeries)).
While SilverStripe protects form submissions from CSRF automatically, destructive GET and POST actions in subclasses of
*Controller* are vulnerable without manual checks.
**You will need to review any custom subclasses of *RequestHandler* and *Controller* (including subclasses of
*FormField*), and add manual checks.** Best practice is to return a "400 Bad Request" HTTP error when the CSRF check
fails.
Also review the method signatures of any form actions - these are only protected automatically with the correct count of
parameters (//$data, $form// instead of *$request*).
:::php
// Form field actions
class MyFormField extends FormField {
// Form fields always have a reference to their form.
// Use the form-specific token instance.
function delete($request) {
$token = $this->getForm()->getSecurityToken();
if(!$token->checkRequest($request)) return $this->httpError(400);
// valid form field delete action
}
}
// Controller actions (GET and POST) without form
class MyController extends Controller {
// Manually adds token to link
function DeleteLink() {
$token = SecurityToken::inst();
$link = Controller::join_links($this->Link(), 'delete');
// will add "?SecurityID=`<random value>`"
$link = $token->addToUrl($link);
return $link;
}
// Controller actions pass through the request object,
// not called through a form.
// Use a global token instance.
function delete(SS_HTTPRequest $request) {
$token = SecurityToken::inst();
if(!$token->checkRequest($request)) return $this->httpError(400);
// valid controller delete action
}
}
// Controller actions (GET and POST) with form
class MyController extends Controller {
// Forms have CSRF protection turned on by default,
// will add a HiddenField instance called "SecurityID"
function Form() {
return new Form(
$this, 'Form', new FieldSet(), new FieldSet(new FormAction('submit'))
);
}
// Form->httpSubmission() checks for CSRF automatically,
// but you need to include both parameters in the method signature.
function submit($data, Form $form) {
// valid submit action
}
}
Note: It is regarded as good practice in HTTP to only have destructive actions in POST submissions rather than GET
links.
If you have overwritten any CMS templates (based on LeftAndMain), you will need to update them to include "SecurityID"
parameter in all manually created forms.
Affected classes and methods:
* AssetAdmin->addfolder()
* AssetAdmin->deletefolder()
* AssetAdmin->deleteunusedthumbnails()
* AssetAdmin->removefile()
* AssetTableField
* CMSMain->addpage()
* CMSMain->buildbrokenlinks()
* CMSMain->createtranslation()
* CMSMain->duplicate()
* CMSMain->duplicatewithchildren()
* CMSMain->publishall()
* CMSMain->restore()
* CMSMain->rollback()
* CMSMain->unpublish()
* CommentTableField
* ComplexTableField
* LeftAndMain->ajaxupdateparent()
* LeftAndMain->ajaxupdatesort()
* LeftAndMain->deleteitems()
* MemberTableField
* MemberTableField->addtogroup()
* MemberTableField->delete()
* MemberTableField_ItemRequest->delete()
* PageComment
* PageComment_Controller
* SecurityAdmin->addgroup()
* SecurityAdmin->addmember()
* SecurityAdmin->MemberForm()
* SecurityAdmin->removememberfromgroup()
* SecurityAdmin->savemember()
* TableListField
### Usage of Controller::join_links() to concatenate links now mandatory
The `[api:Controller::join_links()]` method
to create links within SilverStripe controllers is now mandatory. This method ensures that links with existing GET
parameters don't break through string concatenation.
:::php
// bad
$link = $this->Link() . 'export?csv=1';
// good
$link = Controller::join_links($this->Link(), 'export', '?csv=1');
Full controller example:
:::php
class MyController extends Controller {
function export($request) {
// ...
}
function Link($action = null) {
return Controller::join_links('MyController', $action);
}
function ExportLink() {
return Controller::join_links($this->Link('export'), '?csv=1');
}
}
Using this method is particularly important for any custom
`[api:TableListField]` or
`[api:ComplexTableField]` subclasses and any
`[api:LeftAndMain]` subclass for the CMS UI. These classes in
particular were refactored to secure destructive links against Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF). This is achieved via a
mandatory "SecurityID" GET parameter appended to the base link.
### Auto-disabled "SecurityID" field in FunctionalTest
"SecurityID" tokens are now disabled by default in unit tests, to make form submissions easier.
You can manually enable security tokens, either globally or for a specific form.
:::php
class MyTest extends SapphireTest {
// option 1: enable for all forms created through this test
function setUp() {
parent::setUp();
SecurityToken::enable();
}
// option 2: enable for one specific form
function testMyForm() {
$form = new MyForm();
$form->enableSecurityToken();
}
}
## 2.4.3 Changelog
### Features and Enhancements
* [rev:113420] Validation for uploaded files
* [rev:113284] Added Form->enableSecurityToken() as a counterpart to the existing disableSecurityToken()
* [rev:113272] Added !SecurityToken to wrap CSRF protection via "SecurityID" request parameter
* [rev:112272] MySQLDatabase::renameField() no longer checks that the field exists in fieldList(). alterField() does no such check, so it should be consistent. Removing this should provide a small performance improvement as well
* [rev:111915] Added localisation for batch actions in javascript + translations
* [rev:111891] #4903 !MemberLoginForm field for "You are logged in as %s" message customisation (thanks walec51!)
* [rev:111887] #3775 Added getter to GD so you can retrieve the internal GD resource being used. Made setGD public so you can override the GD yourself as well
* [rev:111873] Show "Database Configuration" section of installer requirements for reference (collapsed by default)
* [rev:111868] MySQLDatabase::getVersion() now uses mysql_get_server_info() which has been supported since PHP 4. This gives us a better version than say "5.1", instead we now get something like "5.1.51"
* [rev:111850] Make use of mysql_get_server_info() when calling MSSQLDatabase::getVersion(), if there's a problem getting info this way, falls back to using query for VERSION() details
* [rev:111828] 6017 - Configurable help link
* [rev:111495] Making "sake" script more portable by using "/usr/bin/env" shebang instead of "/bin/bash" (fixes #6045, thanks sychan)
* [rev:111489] Added "module=" argument to !FullTestSuite (to support comma-separated module lists)
* [rev:111449] allow !PageCommentForm to store all users data, rather than hardcoding the fields
* [rev:111443] simple extend hook for !PageCommentForms. Temporary measure till #6053 is implemented
* [rev:111086] #6023 Shorten SSViewer cached template path for readability of the filenames, and also so Windows doesn't break on long paths
* [rev:111050] Added custom test listener for PHPUnit in order to call setUpOnce() and tearDownOnce() on !SapphireTest
* [rev:111048] Allowing to run single tests via phpunit through new test bootstrap XML file (e.g. "phpunit sapphire/tests/api/!RestfulServerTest.php" or "phpunit sapphire/tests/api")
* [rev:111045] Added !FullTestSuite.php, so that you can test by running "phpunit sapphire/tests/!FullTestSuite".
* [rev:111041] refactored runTests, using the new phpunit wrapper classes.
* [rev:111039] Created a phpunit wrapper class to ensure that Sapphire's test framework is capable of running unit tests, coverage report and retrieve clover-statistics for PHPUnit 3.4 and PHPUnit 3.5
### API Changes
* [rev:113282] Fixed various controllers to enforce CSRF protection through Form_!SecurityToken on GET actions that are not routed through Form->httpSubmission(): !AssetAdmin, CMSBatchActionHandler, CMSMain, !CommentTableField, !LeftAndMain, !MemberTableField, !PageComment, !PageComment_Controller
* [rev:113275] Added security token to !TableListField->Link() in order to include it in all URL actions automatically. This ensures that field actions bypassing Form->httpSubmission() still get CSRF protection
### Bugfixes
* [rev:113590] ErrorPage::requireDefaultRecords() case where no assets directory causes an fopen() error. Ensure assets directory is created before attempting to write error page files
* [rev:113419] Better checking of file validity (#6093) Thanks Pigeon

* [rev:111494] Changing File->Filename property from arbitrary limitation on VARCHAR (255 characters) to TEXT (65k characters) to ensure the framework can handle deeply nested filesystem trees (fixes #6015, thanks muzdowski)
* [rev:111493] Moving folder after executing Folder::findOrMake will not set the Filenames properly. Invoking updateFilesystem() in File->onAfterWrite() instead of onBeforeWrite(), and avoid caching in FIle->getRelativePath() (fixes #5994 and #5937, thanks muzdowski)
* [rev:111492] Removing overloaded !TableField->sourceItems() method, which enables features of the underlying !TableListField implementation, such as pagination and source item caching (fixed #5965, thanks martijn)

* [rev:111452] added validation to the page comment form
* [rev:111255] ContentController::!SiteConfig() should look to the !SiteTree record so an alternate !SiteConfig is considered, if this method doesn't exist on the data record then fall back to the default !SiteConfig
* [rev:111202] Fixed quoting and GROUP BY statement in !ManyManyComplexTableField->getQuery() for Postgres compatibility
* [rev:111176] Force tidy to avoid wrapping long lines in CSSContentParser, it breaks our !FunctionalTest string assertions
* [rev:111126] TarballArchive::extractTo() uses an incorrectly spelled argument
