Invenio v1.0.9

Invenio v1.0.9 is released

Invenio v1.0.9 was released on May 21, 2015.

About

Invenio is a digital library framework enabling you to build your own
digital library or document repository on the web.

This old stable release update is recommended to all Invenio sites
using v1.0.8 or previous releases.

Security fixes

• WebStyle:
  • Adds back the HttpOnly cookie attribute in order to better
    protect against potential XSS vulnerabilities. (#3064)

Improved features

• installation:
  • Apache virtual environments are now created with appropriate
    WSGIDaemonProcess user value, taken from the configuration
    variable CFG_BIBSCHED_PROCESS_USER, provided it is set. This
    change makes it easier to run Invenio under non-Apache user
    identity.
  • Apache virtual environments are now created with appropriate
    WSGIPythonHome directive so that it would be easier to run
    Invenio from within Python virtual environments.

Bug fixes

• global:
  • Replaces invenio-demo.cern.ch by demo.invenio-software.org
    which is the new canonical URL of the demo site. (#2867)
• testutils:
  • Switches off SSL verification when running the test suite. Useful
    for Python-2.7.9 where self-signed SSL certificates (that are
    usually used on development installations) would cause apparent
    test failures. (#2868)
