Just a few days ago, a patch for CVE-2024-52301 was to Laravel’s core, Laravel being the PHP framework we use here at Grokability for Snipe-IT. The patch for this security flaw was released in v7.1.14 earlier today.

Please make sure you’re upgraded to PHP 7.4 or higher before Snipe-IT v6 launches. Timeline We’re...
