We‘ve rolled out a new release as promised, mostly bugfixes with some important improvements in efficiency(faster work over slow links, faster processing of long SQL statements and more responsive data grid when used with large datasets), please download it and try it. We have binary packages for Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, and sources, of course. Here are the things fixed in 0.8.3.
Wireshark (formerly Ethereal) 0.99.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite or large loop) via the (1) Firebird/Interbase, (2) DCP ETSI, (3) IPv6, or (4) USB dissector, which can trigger resource consumption or a crash.
Firebird V2.03 Classic and SuperServer for MacOS (powerpc) are available for download. Thanks to Paul Beach and Alex Peshkov.
Changelog: added missing parentheses in query in listTableTriggers() in the Manager module
Some bugs are fixed in php 5.3.x and firebird could work now with symfony project (must be tested first)
Times of change are upon the database market. The major established database companies are being challenged by open source upstarts like MySQL and PostgreSQL. [Add firebird to the list too]
