How do I restore my data?
Assuming you have followed the How Do I Backup My Data instructions, you can restore your database as follows...
Note LedgerSMB versions prior to version 1.9.16 did not support PostgreSQL 14 or higher due to a backward incompatible change in PostgreSQL 14.

How do I backup my data?
Log in to the the 'setup.pl' administrative interface, using your ledgersmb database admin user (usually "lsmb_dbadmin" or "postgres"). The default address for setup.pl is http://localhost/ledgersmb/setup.pl.
There are 2 buttons:
- Backup database (parts, customers, accounting records, etc)
- Backup roles (your login accounts and rights)
One creates a backup of the content of your database. The other creates a backup of the roles.

COGS assembly fix
All versions from 1.3.0 to 1.11.16 are affected by a bug in Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) accounting for assemblies: Instead of accounting expenses and reducing inventory, negative expenses are posted, putting goods into inventory.
I never used assemblies; am I affected too?
No. Only if you used assemblies in combination with LedgerSMB 1.3.0 through 1.11.15, you're affected.

cve-2024-23831 (Cross Site Request Forgery)
Privilege escalation through CSRF attack on 'setup.pl'
Summary
When a LedgerSMB database administrator has an active session in /setup.pl,
an attacker can trick the admin into clicking on a link which automatically
submits a request to setup.pl without the admin's consent. This request can
be used to create a new user account with full application (/login.pl)
privileges, leading to privilege escalation.
Known vulnerable
All of:
Security advisory for CVE-2021-3731 (Clickjacking)
Insufficient protection against 'clickjacking'
Summary

other sites, making it vulnerable to 'clickjacking. This allows
an attacker to trick a targetted user to execute unintended actions.
Known vulnerable
All of:
Security advisory for CVE-2021-3694 (Cross site scripting)
Reflected cross-site scripting of authenticated users in LedgerSMB
Summary
LedgerSMB does not sufficiently HTML-encode error messages sent to the browser. By sending a specially crafted URL to an authenticated user, this flaw can be abused for remote code execution and information disclosure.

Upgrade to LedgerSMB 1.8
Overview
Company database upgrades are supported all the way back from 1.4 directly to 1.8, using the 1.8 software. Company database upgrades from 1.3 and 1.2 are also supported, but due to the different nature of the upgrade process are called "migrations". The important difference being that when doing a migration, a copy of the data is being created in the 1.8 structure, while upgrades adjust the existing structure for 1.8.
