Hi Everyone!

I know that Panopoly 1.4 was just released last week - I'm sorry for so many releases so quickly. However, we've been trying hard to synchronize Panopoly releases with important security fixes so that your sites aren't left vulnerable.

This release has a couple of small bug fixes, but mainly, it includes an updated version of FAPE to fix a highly critical security vulnerability: SA-CONTRIB-2014-048.

From the security advisory (linked above):

... any user can edit any field on any entity on the site.

This is not an exaggeration! This is a very serious security vulnerability and it is recommended that you update immediately.

If you want information about how to upgrade to the new version and the nitty gritty details about every change -- please see the release notes:

https://drupal.org/node/2248645

Remember: you have to update the WHOLE profile - not just the individual panopoly_* modules! Otherwise, you'll be missing important module updates/patches, and it isn't guarenteed to work. (Full instructions in the link above).

And, of course, you can find links to download, documentation and report problems on the Panopoly project page:

Thanks!
