allChimpRegister security fix; language support

allchimpregister-1.2.3The popular free MailChimp subscription module for Joomla, allChimpRegister has been updated to version 1.2.3. Wait, the last version was 1.2.1. What happened to 1.2.2?

Every once in a while comes a Joomtraders extension enthusiast, going out of their way to help make our extensions even better. After finding an SQL injection point in allChimpRegister (eek!), one of allChimpRegister users from Germany, Benjamin, was quick to notify us of not only of the vulnerability, but also supplied a fix to the code, as well as additional language functionality for different languages (ie German). We updated the extension with the security update to 1.2.2, and after testing, have also added in the additional language support.


What this means, is that if you have another language configured in Joomla, eg German, then the German language file included in this release will be automatically used instead of the default English. To add another language is a case of duplicating one of the language files, editing the language content, and then adding the new language filename to the xml file.

Thanks again Ben!
