Dear ILIAS admins and members of this mailing list,
This mail is only relevant for you if you have activated Mathjax support in ILIAS to render LaTeX (for mathematical expressions).
The default Mathjax server mentioned in the Mathjax administration of ILIAS has been shut down recently. If you use this URL to render LaTeX in the browser, this won’t work any more. There is a new default Mathjax server available at https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com <https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/>. To use this server, please enter the following string to the input ‚URL to Mathjax‘ at Administration » Third-Party-Software » Settings » Mathjax :
https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/mathjax/2.7.1/MathJax.js?config=TeX-…
For more information about LaTeX support in ILIAS, please join the SIG Mathe+ILIAS : http://www.ilias.de/docu/goto_docu_grp_5183.html
Kind regards,
Matthias

Dear ILIAS-Administrators
Two years ago the versioning of the ILIAS-Source-Code has been moved from Subversion (SVN) to Git. To make the migration for all Installations as smooth as possible, a synchronization from Github to the SVN-Server has been established which synced all the maintained versions of ILIAS (4.3, 4.4, 5.0) back to the SVN-Server. Besides those Release-Branches many Custom-Branches has been used on the SVN-Server.
There are two services which will be obsolete at some point:
- the synchronization from Github to SVN
- the SVN-Server itself
We kindly ask you to participate the following survey: http://www.ilias.de/docu/goto_docu_svy_5157.html
We than are able to decide upon the shutdown-dates of the services mentioned above. Thank you very much!
Best regards
Fabian

Dear ILIAS admins,
the Jour Fixe of the ILIAS Society discussed the question how to proceed
with the supported PHP versions on the last meeting [1].
To finally take the decision on the next meeting on 22.05 we need your
feedback on the issue:
Is there anyone who is in severe trouble if we would drop the support
for PHP 5 completely with the subsequent release of ILIAS (i.e. ILIAS
5.4)? Do you see any problems if ILIAS 5.4, that will be released
somewhere around end of 2018, only supports PHP > 7?
Please use the wiki page [1] to voice your opinion.
If we do not get any feedback we will decide to drop support for PHP 5
completely with the subsequent ILIAS release.

Dear list members,
again a media object related security issue has been identified and
fixed for ILIAS versions >= 5.0. A big "Thank you" goes to researcher
Julian Rittweger for reporting this issue.
It was possible to upload SVG files as media objects (e.g. in wiki
pages) which could be used to inject and execute JavaScript (persistent
XSS).
With the latest fix of the responsible code maintainer, SVG files will
be sanitized when uploaded to ILIAS.
We advise strongly to update your ILIAS installation to the latest
version.
Best regards,
Michael Jansen
