This is really just an FYI as I know that some Jamroom users are also Drupal users, but make sure you see this:

https://www.drupal.org/PSA-2014-003

The important part is that unless you patched your Drupal install within a couple hours of the patch being available, your site could already be hacked. Make sure and work with your hosting provider to restore from a backup if needed.

Hope this helps!

appreciated. I have a couple of sites running drupal.

--update--
What an exercise in frustration. Not liking the Drupal update process. Loads of "You need to locate this and do this" then "This has been changed to something else, so locate and download a module to get back to where you were"

Leaves me feeling like saying "Hey Drupal, your the one with the security issue, I was happy. I want my site left as it is, just with the security hole patched."

Think I'll have to convert them all over to Jamroom.

Check out this laundry list of update stuff. (admittedly I haven't been pro-active on keeping it up to date.)

Wow - I'm surprised at how "user unfriendly" all that is. I'm a developer and I'm not sure I even understand what they are saying needs to be done about the red "user_warnings". What a mess. I agree - convert to JR ;)
