We have found that the Private Messages mod has several bugs that can compromise the security of your forum. The bugs are of different severity, but we've decided to patch them all. The bugs affect essencially the native mod files, not the Snitz base code files. As such, instead of posting the details of each fix here, we are providing a link to a set of fixed files, that can be found here.
According to our testing, you can simply overwrite the existing files and use the files in the zip instead. However, be advised that if you have changed the original files in your forum, those changes will be overwritten by the new files. That should not be the case for the vast majority of the forums.
We usually do not provide fixes for mods, but in order to better serve our community, we're posting the fixes for this one.
If you have any issues with these, please post in the Mod Implementation forum.
Again, Here is the link to the set of patched files.

The mod files have been updated to correct something that was missed before. I thank modifichicci for his help on this matter.
For this new download, only pm_options.asp was updated.

Any doubts about this, please post in the Help: Mod Implementation forum.<

Hi All,

The set of files has just been updated (changed privatesend_info.asp), to fix an issue that was still remaining and had surprisingly been overlooked before.
I thank Stefano Angaran for letting us now about it.
