The Joomla Project has released Joomla 3.0.3. It’s considered a security release, but a couple of new features have also been added.

A total of three low-priority information disclosure vulnerabilities have been addressed. The flaws were caused by a search term encoding method, coding errors, and an undefined variable.

In addition, 136 tracker issues have been fixed.

As far as new features are concerned, a Language Installation tool for the Joomla installer has been added.

The second feature refers to the Multilanguage functionality extended from Menu Items associations to the Articles and Article categories implemented in Joomla 3.0.2. The process has been completed in 3.0.3 for all core categories and items in Contacts, Newsfeeds and Weblinks.

Users are advised to update to the latest version, but not before making a backup of their site.
