Security advisory: SQL Injection in LedgerSMB 1.2.24 and lower

Hi all;

The LedgerSMB development team has found an SQL injection issue in
LedgerSMB 1.2.24. Because this issue stems from our common SQL-Ledger
heritage, it affects all versions of LedgerSMB and has been confirmed
in SQL-Ledger 2.8.33. We contacted Dieter when we initially
discovered this and now three weeks later it is doubtful when this
will be fixed on his side (his last communication said it was likely
to be at least a few more weeks from present with no committed
timeline). It is expected that when SQL-Ledger 2.8.34 is released it
will contain a fix for this issue.

Development Progress in 1.3

From an email by Erik Huelsmann:

Another (two?) week(s) have gone by and it's time for another progress
report. We've been working hard to further drive LedgerSMB 1.3 (trunk)
to stabilization.

And with success: Even though new bugs were found and logged, we're
currently down to 0 (zero!) bugs registered in the bug-tracker (and
none located elsewhere). The pending patches queue contains only 2
patches and all pending patches from the mailing list were committed
as well.

[Note: The remaining two patches are not suitable to commit to the main

Screen shots for 1.3!

We have been working long and hard on 1.3 for some time, so it is time we show some screenshots showing how things will be different. I have chosen three screen shots to highlight our new approach:

1) Bank Reconciliation has been entirely redesigned in 1.3 with a new workflow and it is better designed to handle large numbers of transactions. Additionally you can go back later and review a reconciliation set to see what cleared and what was outstanding. This screen shot shows a report for a work in progress.

2) The contact management section is redone. Customers/vendors can now have multiple accounts, contact information, shipping and billing info, notes, etc. This screen shot shows how this looks with Javascript enabled. Here Javascript is used to clean up the interface, and the links at the top switch between visible divs.

3) The contact management screen also functions without Javascript. Here the links on the top are internal hyperlinks to the relevant container divs for the sections of the screen.

months to 800-1200 most months currently. While this is still only half of
