- <h2 id="security-fixes">Security fixes in Vaadin @version-minor@</h2>
- <p>Vaadin 6.7.0 and later incorporates fixes for the following security issues:</p>
- <ul>
- <li><a href="http://dev.vaadin.com/ticket/7669">#7669</a> CSRF/XSS vulnerability through separator injection</li>
- <li><a href="http://dev.vaadin.com/ticket/7670">#7670</a> Directory traversal vulnerability</li>
- <li><a href="http://dev.vaadin.com/ticket/7671">#7671</a> Contributory XSS: Possibility to inject HTML/JavaScript in system error messages</li>
- <li><a href="http://dev.vaadin.com/ticket/7672">#7672</a> Contributory XSS: possibility for injection in certain components</li>
- </ul>
-
- <p>
- These issues were discovered by Wouter Coekaerts (<a href="http://wouter.coekaerts.be/">http://wouter.coekaerts.be/</a>) and an internal review.
- Immediate upgrade to a version containing the fixes (6.6.7 or later or 6.7.0 or later) is strongly recommended for all users.
- </p>
-
- <p>
- The most serious of these issues is the directory traversal attack that can allow read access to the class files of an application as well as some configuration information.
- </p>
-
- <p>
- If unable to immediately upgrade Vaadin to a version containing the fixes, the directory traversal vulnerability can be mitigated by not mapping the context path
- "/VAADIN" to a Vaadin servlet in web.xml but instead deploying such static resources (themes and widgetsets) directly on the server and serving them as files.
- </p>
-
- <p>
- The other vulnerabilities typically require user actions (pasting text crafted by the attacker into the application or following a link crafted by the attacker)
- for a successful attack, but may be exploitable more directly in certain applications. They can allow the attacker to control the user session for the application
- in the browser.

- <b>SQLContainer</b>
- </p>
- <p>SQLContainer connects your application to an SQL database using
- JDBC. SQLContainer allows you to easily bind data stored in a SQL
- database to Table and Select components, as well as edit the data
- using Forms. Compared to many object-relational tools this provides
- you with fast, low-level database access.</p>
- <p>SQLContainer was previously distributed as an add-on and has
- now been integrated into the framework.</p>
- <p>
- <b>TreeTable</b>
- </p>
- <p>TreeTable is an extended Table component that can show
- hierarchical structures in its first column. Users can show or hide
- children from a small icon before the actual column value in the
- first column.</p>
- <p>TreeTable is, similarly to Table, designed to scale well with
- large number of rows by only sending the needed rows to the browser.
- With the Collapsible Container extension, a developer can build the
- data provider so that it does not consume too much memory on the
- server side either.</p>
- <p>
- <b>Chameleon Theme</b>
- </p>
- <p>Chameleon Theme provides a completely new look and feel for
- your application.</p>
- <p>
- The theme is built on top of the Vaadin Base theme and tries to keep
- out of the way where appropriate, so small modifications are easy to
- do with CSS.
- <p>
- The theme contains several different useful styles for many of the
- basic components like <i>big</i> and <i>warning</i> for a Label. You
- can even combine many styles together, like <i>big warning</i>
- </p>
- If the default color scheme does not suit your taste, feel free to
- use the online color scheme editor at <a
- href="http://demo.vaadin.com/">http://demo.vaadin.com</a> to build a
- customized theme.You can also change the base font size for the whole
- theme with the same editor.
- <p>
- <i>Note that the theme is intentionally simplified for some
- browsers, most notably old Internet Explorer versions.</i>

<h2 id="backwardsincompatibilities">Backwards incompatible
changes in Vaadin @version-minor@</h2>
- <p>Table.ColumnGenerator.generateCell has been changed to return
- Object instead of Component to enable generation of plain text.</p>
- <p>Package names for SQLContainer, TreeTable and Chameleon Theme
- java files have been changed from com.vaadin.addons.* to com.vaadin.*</p>
- </p>
- <p>If you have been using SQLContainer, TreeTable or Chameleon
- Theme as add-ons, remove the add-on jars from the project.</p>
- <p>The DOM structure of Forms without descriptions has changed, which means
- that any TestBench scripts testing this kind of Form need to be updated.
- If your tests start failing, subtract one from the index in the test script,
- e.g. change
- <pre class="codeblock">VForm[0]/domChild[0]/domChild[3]</pre>
- into
- <pre class="codeblock">VForm[0]/domChild[0]/domChild[2]</pre>
- and your tests will pass again.</p>
+ <p>VerticalSplitPanel and HorizontalSplitPanel position is now a float instead of an int to enable defining an exact position when using percentages.</p>
