+ <p>phpBB Group are pleased to announce the release of phpBB
+ 2.0.12 the "Horray for Furrywood" release. This release
+ addresses a number of bugs and a couple of potential
+ exploits. [...] one of the potential exploits addressed
+ in this release could be serious in certain situations and
+ thus we urge all users, as always, to upgrade to this
+ release as soon as possible. Mostly this release is
+ concerned with eliminating disclosures of information
+ which while useful in debug situations may allow third
+ parties to gain information which could be used to do harm
+ via unknown or unfixed exploits in this or other
+ applications.</p>
