SEO Metatag Info - fine plugin with extensive functions

Post by fraenkiman » Sun Aug 07, 2022 1:52 pm

Hello, everyone.

I got a really cool plugin from “Hubert’s World” out of the sink and need your support.

I think that this plugin should definitely be part of the standard plugins for Flatpress.

You can open a detailed German manual in the browser under this link; if necessary, have it translated in your language.

The following tasks are involved:
  • If you know them or think you know them, write the steps to reproducibility here.
  • If you already know or think you know a solution (without disabling the plugin), please describe the solution step by step.
If you don't want to use your own flatpress blog, feel free to check out my flatpress blog. Here I have adapted the plugin to my needs and activated it.
Don't worry, I have created a full backup which I can restore at any time.

Excuse my bad English, Google helped.

With best regards
Frank.

Hello, everyone.

I’ve made some progress in my research. Igor Kromin describes reproducibility on this page.

For this, it is sufficient to enter the following in the browser address bar with activated SEO meta tag info plugin:

Code: Select all

your flatpress-domain/?cat=any word or value.
Then a 96-byte file cat-*.ini is created in the directory /fp-content/content/seometa/categories.

Since PHP is not my strong suit, I have a server-side solution.
Here fill it out in the file .htaccess to store the following:

Code: Select all

### Patch für CVE-2015-4399 im SEO-Meta-Tag-Plugin
  RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} .*cat=(.+.?) [NC]
  RewriteRule ^(.*) - [F,L]
For me, this is an acceptable interim solution.

@Arvid, @all,
Perhaps there is the possibility to place an input validation in the plugin, which suppresses the input of ?cat=xyz.

With best regards
Frank

Frank,

thank you very much for your research on that problem. You made it quite easy to me to create a solution: I added a check if the requested category exists before actually creating the ini file.

I uploaded the bugfix release v2.2.1 to the FlatPress wiki.

Updating from v2.2 is quite easy, simply replace fp-plugins/seometataginfo/plugin.seometataginfo.php with the new version. If that worked correctly, you'll see version 2.2.1 in your Admin Area "Plugins" panel.

All the best,
Arvid

Hello Arvid,

very nice. Many thanks for the fix. :D This makes my workaround on the server side obsolete.

I hope that the plugin will also run with PHP 8.1 in the future. I haven't noticed any abnormalities with PHP 7.4 so far.

Maybe someone else would like to install the plugin and translate it at the same time. Languages ​​available so far are English and German.

Best regards from Berlin

Glad it works fine!

Would you mind creating an own wiki page for the plugin and remove it from the legacy plugins page? I mean, technically, it's not legacy any more ;)
Thanks!

Hello, everyone,

a new version is available for the SEO Metatag Info Plugin.

There are still a few tests left.

It should be checked whether the plugin works as expected under PHP 8.x with and without [smartyupdate].

So if you have the opportunity, ...you are welcome to test it and leave feedback here.

Best regards
Frank

Thanks for the translation Eagleman,

I will add your translation to the plugin and make it available via the wiki.
