This release brings a number of improvements. To avoid display errors in the layout of the gallery in the back end, flex is now used in the CSS instead of float. In addition, a bug in TinyMCE on mobile devices has been fixed and a PHP8 error has been fixed.
Why is there a bugfix release published shortly before a security vulnerability is closed?
When Contao 4.9.6 was released, we did not have this separation yet. There were problems with the update via the Contao Manager as well as bugs that had to be fixed the next day in a new version 4.9.7. Therefore, the core team decided not to mix security and bugfix versions anymore. Security releases will henceforth contain only the changes necessary to close the vulnerabilities.
Changelog of the fixed issues in Contao 4.13.48:
- #7497 Use `flex` for the back end gallery layout (fritzmg)
- #7517 Fix the TinyMCE overflow on mobile devices (zoglo)
