This version patches the security vulnerability related to custom emoji’s.

This instance was updated a little while ago.

You might have heard of the recent security incident on some instances – that specific xss fix had been added to this instance in advance. However, there are no custom emojis yet, which was the source of that incident. But .... I'll likely add some soon. :)

 

As a reaction on the XSS attacks yesterday, the devs released the version v0.18.2 for the front end and now for the back end as well.

To hopefully mitigate all the open issues, that existed yesterday and allowed possible attack vectors, i now updated the instance to this latest release. With the security fixes, there are other minor improvements to the system.
