Release notes

Maintenance and security release of the Drupal 8 series.

This release fixes security vulnerabilities. Sites are urged to upgrade immediately after reading the notes below and the security announcement:

No other fixes are included.

Important update information

  • The pear/archive_tar project has been updated from version 1.4.6 (Drupal 8.7) and 1.4.8 (Drupal 8.8) to version 1.4.9 in order to mitigate URL HERE.
  • No changes have been made to the .htaccess, web.config, robots.txt or default settings.php files in this release, so upgrading custom versions of those files is not necessary if your site is already on the previous release.

The packaged tar and zip files that were available from 2019-12-18 20:53:00 UTC until 2019-12-18 21:13:00 UTC were erroneously published with drupal 8.8.0 packaged inside. If you downloaded a tarball during that window, you should re-download it and upgrade again using the new tarball.
