<div>Dear All,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div>Two security vulnerabilities have been discovered in versions of OMERO up to and including 5.0.5. System administrators should review the "Security Vulnerabilities" pages on the OME website:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><a href="http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/products/omero/secvuln">http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/products/omero/secvuln</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We do not consider either 2014-SV3 CSRF or 2014-SV4 POODLE to be critical vulnerabilities due to the difficulty of exploiting them.
<b>However, we do highly recommend all installations be upgraded.</b></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The new version is available from the 5.0.6 downloads page - <a href="http://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/omero/5.0.6/">http://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/omero/5.0.6/</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For information on the upgrade from 4.4.x or 5.0.x to 5.0.6, see the OMERO5 instructions - <a href="http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/omero5/sysadmins/server-upgrade.html">http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/omero5/sysadmins/server-upgrade.html</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Bio-Formats 5.0.6 is also being released, although not due to a security vulnerability. Bug fixes include:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Pixel sign for DICOM images</li><li>Image dimensions for Zeiss CZI and Nikon ND2</li><li>Support for Leica LIF files produced by LAS AF 4.0 and later</li></ul>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The new version is available from the 5.0.6 download page - <a href="http://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/bio-formats/5.0.6/">http://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/bio-formats/5.0.6/</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><b>Note that OpenJDK8 is not yet supported by OMERO or Bio-Formats.</b></div>
