Version 4.6 of Foal is out!

Security update

This release is a security update that removes the deprecated X-XSS-Protection header. This header was a feature of Internet Explorer, Chrome and Safari that stopped pages from loading when they detected reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. But it is now no longer recommended. In some cases, this header can also create XSS vulnerabilities in otherwise safe websites.

How to update

To update to version 4.6, run:

npx foal upgrade 4.6

No code changes are required.
