The Interchange Development Group is pleased to announce the release of 
Interchange 5.4.2, the latest production-ready version of our web 
application server. This is a maintenance release and upgrading from 
versions 5.4.0 or 5.4.1 should present no compatibility problems.

The main changes are:

* Fixed a DoS exploit caused by carefully crafted HTTP POST requests.

* Worked around apparent Perl bug that allowed code called by
   DispatchRoutines to overwrite the routines arrays themselves.

* Fixed [sql-quote] sub-tag of the [query] tag, which didn't work for
   multi-line column data.

* Fixed masking of unencrypted credit card numbers to work with a custom
   MV_CREDIT_CARD_INFO_TEMPLATE that does not match the regexp. Also fixed
   the regexp so it removes the CVV2 value from the unencrypted data.

* Fixed shipping problem with the temporary mv_shipping cart, which could
   cause trouble in cart recalculations.

* Made get_option_hash return a copy when passed a reference.

* Don't run check_sub on POSTAUTH for Linkpoint.

* Made &and and &or profile commands work when alone on a line between two
   profile checks.

* Increased XHTML compatibility and fixed some CSS.

* Various admin, Standard demo, and Debian package fixes.
