The OME team is pleased to announce the release of OMERO 5.2.4

back to Announcements

Today we are releasing OMERO 5.2.4. This is a security release to fix the cleanse.py script used by the “bin/omero admin cleanse” command, which was not properly respecting user permissions and may lead to data loss.

Full details of the issue are available on the 2016-SV1-cleanse page.

The script and command have now been made admin-only. It is highly suggested that you upgrade your server or apply the patch available from the security page.

This release does not upgrade the version of Bio-Formats which OMERO uses, or feature any other updates.

The software is available on the archived downloads.

Upgrade information is in the server upgrade page.

For any problems or comments, please use the OME Forums or mailing lists
