We've made a security update to Flock. Flock is now based on Firefox 1.5.0.3, which itself was an update to fix a known denial of service vulnerability. We recommend you upgrade to the 0.5.15 version to keep your browsing experience safe.

Thanks as always to the good folks at Mozilla for providing Firefox as a platform for Flock and being so on the ball with fixing security issues.

Do the testing builds include this update do you know Will?

Thanks as always,
Matt

According to http://tinderbox.flock.com/Project_C/status.html, the newest builds are on Firefox 1.5.0.3

Thank you, Jon!

Hi Will:

You mention in your post, "We recommend you upgrade to the 0.5.15 version to keep your browsing experience safe." When I went to the Download Continuous Test Builds, I saw that the latest version of Flock was 0.7.0.5.0, and that is what I downloaded and installed. Am I missing something?

Regards,

Omar.-

Omar, what you're seeing is the difference between releases and builds. Builds reflect ongoing progress on the product. Releases represent frozen points in time. The current release is 0.5.15. The current build is 0.7.0.5.0. I'm 95% certain 0.7.0.5.0 has been patched with the same fix we've applied to the release. So you should be as safe as anybody using a release -- you'll just find features (and bugs) they don't have because the builds reflect day-to-day work on the product. I hope that wasn't too confusing.

Omar, the continuous test builds are of the version of Flock still in development.

0.5.15 is the current released version.

Daryl, Thanks a lot for your explanation. Now it's clear, crystal clear.

Cheers,

Omar.-

Foolswidsom: Thanks for making me wiser today. I'm learning.

Cheers,

Omar.-

Would be nice to include the link to download this update in the announcement!

Thanks for keeping on top of things, though. It's appreciated.

Andrew: We don't keep the download links permanently for each release, so I added a link to the download page in the text of the blog post.

Please announce new versions in announcements@flock.com.

When the game no longer to be played, I hope that I will remember the beauty of the adventures and I will not forget forever. But the ghost money in the game I will remember a lot than others, because I have the money that I can buy a lot of things what I want to buy.
