BeezNest fixes new Chamilo security flaws in 48h

Secunia gave the Chamilo Security team full details of three security flaws detected in version 1.9.4 on Monday the 4th of March 2013. These flaws were detected by Fernando Muñoz, a regular contact for Chamilo in terms of security. We are very grateful for his and Secunia's work. Within less than 48 hours, the Chamilo Security team, part of BeezNest's development team, has reviewed, patched, published and communicated a fix to its community through the Chamilo wiki and Chamilo Security team's Twitter account, doing its best effort to inform everyone in time. In fact, a patch was available within 12h, but it took us some time to go through the right communication channels and make the patch accessible to the greatest number. Our fast turn around time on this security issue is a reflection of the priority and focus we place on security. Security is more than a side item for us, it’s part of our core principles. At Chamilo, we embrace security research and show our appreciation to all involved. Thank you for helping us make Chamilo better!
