CIVI-SA-2020-03: PHP Code Execution via Phar Deserialization

Backend users may be able to upload and execute a maliciously crafted "PHAR" file.

The "PharExtensionInterceptor" library from Typo3 addresses this problem. Many projects - including the current Drupal and Joomla releases - already activate this protection and are already secure. However, some environments - such as WordPress - do not have it. This update extends the protection to all CiviCRM-supported environments.

Back in September 2019, we had announced a plan to upgrade the content management system (CMS) running the civicrm.org website, as well as plans to make civicrm.org available in many languages. Today I'm happy to announce that we have reached a major milestone: most of the static content, user logins, blogs and many CiviCRM forms are now being served from Drupal8.
