Xenforo Core Full Package Nulled 2.3.0 Beta6

XenForo 2.2.12 is now available for all licensed customers to download. We strongly recommend that all customers running previous versions of XenForo 2.2 upgrade to this release to benefit from increased stability.

We're pleased to announce the introduction of two new features available in XenForo 2.2.12.

New CAPTCHA provider: Cloudflare Turnstile​

In September, Cloudflare Turnstile was announced. You may have noticed that we quickly implemented this into the software and it has been running here now for a little while.

While on the surface this may seem like "just another CAPTCHA" option, we feel that Cloudflare has gotten a lot of things right in its approach to this product that is missing from many other providers including HCaptcha and Google reCAPTCHA. It's a much better experience for your users, respects your users privacy and with XF 2.2.12 also provides more granular logging in the Cloudflare dashboard so you can see analytics about where in the software a CAPTCHA is being used.

We encourage you to read more about Cloudflare Turnstile on their blog and consider signing your site up, for free, right here or if you are an existing Cloudflare user, get started in your Cloudflare dashboard.

Advanced cookie consent system​

Starting with XF 2.2.12 you will be able to enable a new "Advanced" cookie consent system. This enables your users to have much more granular control over the specific cookies that are set, the purpose of each cookie and prevents certain cookies from being set at all until explicit consent is given.

As ever, this system is also extendable by add-on developers so that cookies set by an add-on can be appropriately categorised and also require consent before certain functionality is available.

Some of the changes in XF 2.2.12 include:

• Always default to an empty array when IPv6 lookup fails
• Fix a server error when guests tried to access non-existent search results
• Include some missing entries in the hashes file

Current requirements​

Please note that XenForo 2.2 has higher system requirements than earlier versions.

The following are minimum requirements:

• PHP 7.0 or newer (PHP 8.0 recommended)
• MySQL 5.5 and newer (Also compatible with MariaDB/Percona etc.)
• All of the official add-ons require XenForo 2.2.
• Enhanced Search requires at least Elasticsearch 2.0.

Today, we are releasing XenForo 2.2.11 to address a potential security vulnerability. We recommend that all customers running XenForo 2.2 upgrade to 2.2.11 or use the attached patch file as soon as possible.

The issue relates to HTML attribute injection which can be triggered when rendering editor content, such as when a post is edited or quoted.

XenForo extends thanks to security researcher @PaulB, the team at @NamePros and @Xon for reporting the issues.

We recommend doing a full upgrade to resolve the issues, but a patch can be applied manually. See below for further details.

Note: There are no other changes in this release and any work previously done towards XenForo 2.2.11 - including a new CAPTCHA option by Cloudflare Turnstile and various bug fixes and improvements - will be released alongside XenForo 2.2.12 in the coming weeks.

• Shortly after we released XenForo 2.2.10 we became aware of a number of minor issues that may have affected a number of customers.
• Therefore, today, we have released XenForo 2.2.10 Patch 1 to rectify these issues.

2.2.10 will be one of the last releases of the 2.2.x series before we move 2.3.0 to beta
Some of the changes in XF 2.2.10 include:

• Require values for old/new changelog values
• Properly handle null values within the Arr::stringToArray() function
• Remove extraneous space when generating a one-time password URL
• Support rebuilding daily stats from the command line
• Add additional indexes for the active and expired user upgrade tables
• Remove superfluous code setting aria-label for tooltips
• Add lazy loading attribute to resource icons
• Pass an index hint when performing certain IP lookups

The following public templates have had changes:

• core_block.less
• poll_create
• poll_edit
• poll_macros
• tag_macros
• widget_forum_statistics

Where necessary, the merge system within the "outdated templates" page should be used to integrate these changes.

XenForo 2.2.9 is now available for all licensed customers to download. We strongly recommend that all customers running previous versions of XenForo 2.2 upgrade to this release to benefit from increased stability.

In addition to the usual bug fixes and improvements, we've continued to improve compatibility with PHP 8.1 and added support for self-hosted licenses to more easily sign outgoing emails with DKIM as per this recent suggestion by @digitalpoint.

XenForo 2.2.7 inadvertently shipped with an implicit minimum requirement of PHP 7.1 due to the way that newer versions of composer attempt to validate your platform is compatible with the included dependencies.

If you're currently running PHP 7.0 you may have been unable to upgrade to or run XenForo 2.2.7. Patch 1 removes this platform check.

Additionally, if you're currently running PHP 7.0 we would strongly urge you to consider upgrading to a newer version as soon as possible. XenForo 2.3 will be shipping with a minimum requirement of PHP 7.2.5. We currently recommend upgrading to PHP 8.0 where possible.
