Security Update
New additions:
- Improved security
- Added support for more image formats
Improved security for custom user images. Users can no longer upload SVGs as their background image for improved security.
Hardened checks to make sure only supported image types are used. Users can now use multiple image formats for their profile picture.
If users have the Imagick PHP extension enabled, the app will sanitize images when uploaded and remove all EXIF and metadata.
In short:
- Fixed JS exploit using SVG
- Now sanitizing EXIF and metadata
- Now allowing multiple file types as profile picture
- Added new error messages
New Translations:
- Brazilian Portuguese
Issues:
Users may get an erroneous error when trying to delete their profile or background image. We do not know what's causing this. For now, you can ignore this error, you will be able to delete your images by trying again eventually.

v4.2.1
New LinkStack release (version 4.2.0)
Feature Update
+ hotfix
Added option for admins to impersonate other users
Added an option to impersonate other users. This feature was heavily inspired by this plugin for Nextcloud. This allows admins to authenticate as other users and view the Admin Panel as that user.
To use this new feature, navigate to your "Manage Users" page and click on the impersonation icon next to any user.
This will redirect you to the user's panel view. To exit this mode, click on the x on the top right-hand corner of the page.
Only one admin can impersonate a user at any time. Should you be logged out while impersonating another user, the system will resume your session again after you're logged in again.
Additional additions:
- Added theme selector to edit user page
- Fixed error 404 for footer links on footer pages
Hotfix:
- Fixed DB calls for MySQL causing an error while updating
- Fixed bug preventing deletion of custom background image
New translations:
- Swedish
