This issue is already quite widely publicized and quite frankly “we’re handling it and removing this” is a much more harmful response than I would hope to see. Especially as the admins of that instance have not yet upgraded the frontend version to apply the urgent fix.

It’s not like this was a confidential bug fix, this is a zero day being actively exploited. Please be more cooperative and open regarding these issues in your own administration if you’re hosting an instance. 🙏

    There’s already an update available, but it’s for lemmy-ui not lemmy. Just update the tag to 0.18.2-rc.1 and you’ll have this fix.

      This is probably a dumb question but I used the Ansible install for Lemmy and just did a git pull and --become again but UI wasn’t updated so I assume 0.18.2 isn’t in release yet (which is fine) but is there documentation on updating UI? I see where it’s showing in the docker-compose.yml file but I am uncertain what to do after changing it there (or if that’s the right place to change it).

      Yep, that’s the plan! Thanks for letting me know. Lemmy is awesome and I am having so much fun with it. I expect it only to get better as the days and weeks progress.
