RELEASE INFORMATION

Zend Framework 2.2.6

This is the sixth maintenance release for the 2.2 series.

06 Mar 2014

UPDATES IN 2.2.6

This release contains security updates:

• ZF2014-01: Potential XXE/XEE attacks using PHP functions: simplexml_load_*, DOMDocument::loadXML, and xml_parse. A new component, ZendXml, was introduced to mitigate XML eXternal Entity and XML Entity Expansion vectors that are present in older versions of libxml2 and/or PHP. Zend\Json\Json::fromXml() and Zend\XmlRpc's Response and Fault classes were potentially vulnerable to these attacks. If you use either of these components, we recommend upgrading immediately.

Please see CHANGELOG.md.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Zend Framework 2 requires PHP 5.3.3 or later; we recommend using the latest PHP version whenever possible.

INSTALLATION

Please see INSTALL.md.
