Koha performance on Debian
by Paul Dokken 28 Jan '25

28 Jan '25

I am running an instance of Koha 23.11.10 on Debian 12.8 on a HyperV VM. I have allocated 16gb of RAM and 16 virtual processors. I have not yet loaded all the data from another system we are exporting from and just have a few patrons entered. It takes about 12 seconds before it displays the list of patrons. Any suggestions on what to check? When I look at the top command it shows app.pl is taking 100% of the CPU when searching. Other parts of Koha are running slow as well. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, -- *Paul Dokken* Information and Digital Technology System Administrator PO Box 248, Waxhaw, NC 28173 | jaars.org (c) 803.235.6861 | paul.dokken(a)jaars.org JUNGLE AVIATION AND RELAY SERVICE At JAARS, we commit to: Seek God Above All | Serve in Love | Act with Integrity | Steward God's Resources with Courage | Pursue Excellence | Collaborate with Respect | Create a Culture of Innovation

CSRF tokens are not getting validated
by koha＠ourlib.in 28 Jan '25

28 Jan '25

Hello, sorry to bother you again. Security team has raised following concern, please guide me in fixing the same: =============== In Koha version 24.05, CSRF tokens are not getting validated during insert or update operations (e.g., creating a new patron). Even when the CSRF token is removed or invalid, Koha still processes the request and creates the new patron. Koha Version: 24.05 Steps to Reproduce: Navigate to the patron creation form in Koha. Remove the CSRF token from the input and meta tags. Submit the form to create a new patron. The new patron is created successfully, despite the missing or invalid CSRF token. Koha v24.05 does not validate CSRF tokens correctly, potentially exposing the system to CSRF attacks. ================= Regards, Vikram

Upgrade errors
by Tim Young 17 Jan '25

17 Jan '25

I was helping some people do-release-upgrade from Ubuntu 18.04, to 22.04 and their koha was updated as well. I believe the previous version was 21.05.05-3. We upgraded the OS on the machine to 20.04, then to 22.04, and then upgraded Koha to 24.11.00-1. During the package configuration (repeatable by doing: dpkg --configure koha-common) we get the following response and error: root@elearning:/var/log# dpkg --configure koha-common Setting up koha-common (24.11.00-1) ... Upgrading database schema for opac Can't use string ("0E0") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Installer.pm line 757. dpkg: error processing package koha-common (--configure): installed koha-common package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 255 Errors were encountered while processing: koha-common I tried looking through the log files to see if there was an "install log," but I did not see one. The code looks like it is applying individual updates schema, and one of them is failing. I am not sure how to figure out which one is failing, to then figure out why.

Thank you very much for the information! Tonight I updated to Koha 24.05.06, now preference "ILLModule" works as expected (though missing backends but that seems normal in Koha 24.05).
