From the Joomla.org website:
The Joomla! community is pleased to announce the immediate availability of Joomla! 1.5.6 [Vusani]. This is a quick turnaround security release to address a high level security issue and it is recommended all users upgrade immediately.
A flaw in the reset token validation mechanism allows for non-validating tokens to be forged. This will allow an unauthenticated, unauthorized user to reset the password of the first enabled user (lowest id). Typically, this is an administrator user. Note, that changing the first users username may lessen the impact of this exploit (since the person who changed the password does not know the login associated with the new password). However, the only way to completely rectify the issue is to upgrade to 1.5.6 (or patch the /components/com_user/models/reset.php file).
For more information about this exploit, click here to visit the Joomla Security Blog.

The "Earthblog" Joomla! template is a great template for technical sites, blogs, communities, churches, portals, and so many more.
This template has a variety of time saving extras such as matching JCalPro themes and a super-lightweight mootools slider module to attract readers to your featured content!
When you purchase the Earthblog template package, you'll get all the preset styles shown in this demo as well as the Fireworks graphic source files used to create this template. To make things even easier for you, we've separated the entire CSS structure from presentation in a separate commented file that can easily be modified.
EarthBlog is a Joomla 1.5 native template only. Check it out today! |

If you've ever had a hard time finding the template with all the right options and the exact colors then the wait is over!...Oh, and it's 1.0/1.5 Native, XHTML Valid, and supports all major browsers.
