+
+BookStack v23.01.1 has been released.
+This is a security release that addresses a potential vulnerability in PDF generation that could
+be used to make server-side requests or run potential other PHP code.
+
+Upgrade is advised where untrusted users have permission to create page content in your instance.
+
+From testing, it appears that successful exploitation of this would require either the disabling
+of BookStack default security options, or access to the host machine system, but out of caution
+we're advising upgrade in any environment as specified above.
