If you were experiencing issues with PayFlow over the last few days, you can stop searching high and low for the cause. PayPal experienced a system issue which affected Reporting Engine on the Payflow Gateway. During this time getMetaDataRequest to https://payments-reports.paypal.com/reportingengine may have failed with 105A system error has occurred error message. The claim this is resolved.
We have suspicions, but PayPal did not report, PayPal processing issues the previous weekend as well. We had several reports from clients, in many different hosted environments, who complained that PayPal was slow to process, some could not checkout at all and PayPal emails following the transaction were hours/days behind. All clients who experienced this seem to be processing fine now.

The united States Postal service has rolled out a rate update effective USPS RateV3 January 27, 2013. Those of you using the USPS shipping module in your Zen Carts will not be receiving the correct shipping quotes until you are upgraded. It is my understanding, however, that it will continue to function for the foreseeable future.
Zen Carts versions 1.3.9, 1.5.0 and 1.5.1 can upgrade to the new USPS shipping module and get started with the new rates. Here is the Zen Cart announcement.
~Remember to use your awards points to save money~
The module is specifically, NOT rated for Zen Cart versions older than 1.3.9. It is unknown at this time if it works or not. Please be prepared to provide FTP and admin access for us to install your module. Do not email this information, we will send you a secured form to provide it.
The new USPS Web Tools API Information can be located here for the geeks among you =) Hrmmm, yes I read it.

After many years of trying to purchase PROWebs.com to protect our brand we have finally procured it for a $1010 price tag! It's a lot of money, but the loss of traffic and sales from wrong searches, mistyping, guessing etc is immeasurable indeed.

This is a very important read for all website owners. The nuts and bolts of this very serious security issue is that people who have been previously cleared for use of your Google Webmaster Tools and Google Analytics are suddenly able to use them even after previous removal. Given the nasty breaks many people have with former webmasters and website developers this is a very dangerous thing. Google Webmaster Tools, as pointed out by David Naylor in the article is far more dangerous than it has even been with unauthorized access. Think about it, the guy that you had to fire having access to disavow your links, remove your pages from Google's index..... You need to check your accounts immediately and again remove any unwanted users. If you notice activity that was created by previously removed users, report it to Google immediately.

We have been informed of a minor XSS flaw that exists within code for v1.5.0 & v1.51.
Mitigation for the flaw has been posted to the Zen Cart public Github Repository here.
You can download the patched file here.
You may need to right click this to download correctly. You should also only use the downloaded file if you are sure you have not changed the original file.The mitigation patch is as follows:
1. Edit {ADMIN FOLDER NAME}/includes/functions/general.php
2. change line circa 126 within the zen_get_all_get_params function
Original
PHP Code:if (($key != zen_session_name()) && ($key != 'error') && (!in_array($key, $exclude_array))) $get_url .= $key . '=' . $value . '&';
to
PHP Code:if (($key != zen_session_name()) && ($key != 'error') && (!in_array($key, $exclude_array)))
$get_url .= zen_sanitize_string($key) . '=' . rawurlencode(stripslashes($value)) . '&';
