If you use Tapatalk to connect to your forum, please read the following thread on SMF about a security issue that apparently wasn't communicated to Tapatalk customers:

If you're site is using TapaTalk, update now!  There was a security flaw found in TapaTalk and they decided NOT to inform anyone or advise anyone to update their files.

I did not find out until today, when I just happen to scroll over and found a post about it.

They even publicly admit to patching it silently, but NOT issuing a release or any notice telling people they should replace their files (because they did not even bother changing the version number either).  :o
