Here's my overview of the patch after digging into it
TIME SAVER : Experius provides a patch helper that helps you finding the files in custom themes, custom modules or local overwrites that also might need to be patched manually, you can find it here: https://github.com/experius/Magento-1-Experius-Patch-Helper#magento
Checkout form keys
As said in the other post, this patch adds form keys to the following forms:
Shipping cart form:
app/design/frontend/<package>/<theme>/template/checkout/cart/shipping.phtml
Multishipping billing checkout form:
app/design/frontend/<package>/<theme>/template/checkout/multishipping/billing.phtml
Multishipping shipping checkout form:
app/design/frontend/<package>/<theme>/template/checkout/multishipping/shipping.phtml
Multishipping addresses checkout form:
app/design/frontend/<package>/<theme>/template/checkout/multishipping/addresses.phtml
Billing checkout form:
app/design/frontend/<package>/<theme>/template/checkout/onepage/billing.phtml
Shipping checkout form:
app/design/frontend/<package>/<theme>/template/checkout/onepage/shipping.phtml
Payment checkout form:
app/design/frontend/<package>/<theme>/template/checkout/onepage/payment.phtml
Shipping method checkout form:
app/design/frontend/<package>/<theme>/template/checkout/onepage/shipping_method.phtml
Persistent Billing checkout form:
app/design/frontend/<package>/<theme>/template/persistent/checkout/onepage/billing.phtml
On top of that the following JS files have been updated to be compatible with that change:
js/varien/payment.js
skin/frontend/base/default/js/opcheckout.js
What to do:
If you're using with custom versions of those templates you'll have to update them by adding the following code into them:
<?php echo $this->getBlockHtml('formkey') ?>
If you're using a 3rd party checkout module, you'll have to get in touch with them so they can provide an updated version of their module.
Also if you have custom versions of the previously listed JS files, you'll have to update them too.
SAVE YOUR TIME:
Fabian Schmengler wrote a nice little script to update all those things for you, you can find it here:
https://gist.github.com/schmengler/c42acc607901a887ef86b4daa7a0445b
IMPORTANT NOTE : the checkout formkey validation can be changed in the backend via a new config field under System > Configuration > Admin > Security > Enable Form Key Validation On Checkout . THIS IS NOT ENABLED BY DEFAULT so you'll have to enable it to benefit from this security feature!!! Note that you'll get a notice in the backend if it's not enabled.
Image Upload callback
The image gallery controller has been updated to add a validation callback.
What to do
If you're using a custom module that does image upload with code that looks like this:
$uploader = new Mage_Core_Model_File_Uploader('image');
$uploader->setAllowedExtensions(array('jpg','jpeg','gif','png'));
$uploader->addValidateCallback('catalog_product_image',
Mage::helper('catalog/image'), 'validateUploadFile');
$uploader->setAllowRenameFiles(true);
$uploader->setFilesDispersion(true);
I strongly suggest you update that code by adding the following piece after it:
$uploader->addValidateCallback(
Mage_Core_Model_File_Validator_Image::NAME,
Mage::getModel('core/file_validator_image'),
'validate'
);
Symlinks
This patch removes the system configuration field that allows you to allow template symlinks in the backend. It used to be under System > Configuration > Developer > Template > Allow Symlinks . Now the entire Template section is gone.
On top of that, that field is now disabled by default via the app/etc/config.xml
The funny thing here is that you'll get a notice in the backend if you have that configuration field enabled prior to the patch but you won't be able to disable it as the field is gone.
Only way of doing it is by running the following SQL query
UPDATE core_config_data SET value = 0 WHERE path = "dev/template/allow_symlink";
Clarification
First I strongly suggest you check those two posts that will help you understand the purpose of that Symlink modification:
This modification is really about calling uploadable content (like images) via template directives.
The issue related to symlinks is exploitable only with admin access and Magento added some more protection around image uploads as well.
Please note that they are some protections against known way to exploit it in addition to the setting itself.
What to do: if like me, you're using modman or composer with template symlinks, you're gonna face some issues. I'm still trying to find out what's the best thing to do here apart from dealing with SQL queries.
Main post regarding this issue: SUPEE-9767, modman and symlinks
List of possible issues
V2 was released since that original post. Don't forget to upgrade
Bugs
The word 'confirmed' is used for confirmed bugs. If it's not there, that means it could be a bug but hasn't been confirmed yet.
Hunk Failed Issues
Note that all those issues could be simply because you modified the original file, to double check that this is not the case:
- Backup the file where you get the Hunk Failed error
- Download the original file from your Magento version
- Compare both files
If files are different you'll have to apply the patch with the original file then reapply your custom changes the clean way such as:
- custom template in a custom theme folder
local.xml
- app/code/local file
If files are not different then this is either a permission issue or a "bug" in the patch.
Best Answer
I had the same issue after patching 1.9.2.2 and 1.9.2.3. SUPEE-9767 adds an extended validate method in
Mine was:
And changed to:
The problem seems to be the
imagecopyresampled
call without setting transparency first as it merges the default black background fromimagecreatetruecolor
.What I did was move
imagecopyresampled
into the switch statement and add the transparency calls beforeimagecopysampled
in the png case (you could also use it for gif).So now my if/switch looks like this:
This kept my png transparency during product image uploads. Dont know if this will help with the watermark and obviously if you do use this copy the file into your local folder.
