Security Hole in Frontier

Wednesday, August 19, 1998 by Dave Winer.

An important security hole in all versions of Frontier has been detected and closed.

It affects all web servers running Frontier 5.1.x, 5.0.x, 4.x and the Aretha releases, including the Trial version of 5.1.

We've posted a fix that closes the hole. It's very important that the fix immediately be installed on all servers running Frontier.
