HI
with the new joomla update.... are your templates all ok with
Module Chromes (CVE-2018-6380)
This patch is fixing a longstanding issue with the module Chrome where the module_tag parameter in the system and Protostar template lack escaping which could lead to a XSS attack. This issue is fixed in Joomla 3.8.4 but only for the core templates. Please contact your template provider so they can check the corresponding module Chromes.
I use admin tools pro as well. is there a setting that also helps with this?
No, as Joomla only released this yesterday we have not made those changes to our templates. In any case, Joomla marked it as low-priority so it's not really a severe vulnerability. We will look into this more shortly - we have yet to take a decision what we will be doing.
Regards, Mark.
