Discourse 2.9.0 Beta 8 Beta Branch

Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. Prior to versions 3.4.3 on the stable branch and 3.5.0.beta3 on the beta branch, the users limit for a DM can be bypassed, thus giving the ability to potentially create a DM with every user from a site in it. This issue has been patched in stable version 3.4.3 and beta version 3.5.0.beta3.

Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. Prior to version 3.1.1 of the `stable` branch and version 3.2.0.beta1 of the `beta` and `tests-passed` branches, a malicious admin could create extremely large icons sprites, which would then be cached in each server process. This may cause server processes to be killed and lead to downtime. The issue is patched in version 3.1.1 of the `stable` branch and version 3.2.0.beta1 of the `beta` and `tests-passed` branches. This is only a concern for multisite installations. No action is required when the admins are trusted.
