+
+We’ve released **version 1.8.2** of FixMyStreet, along with versions 1.7.1 and 1.6.2.
+
+These releases include an important security fix, whereby a malicious user
+could craft an image upload to the server that allowed them to run external
+commands as the user running the site. Please update your installation as soon
+as possible.
+
+Version 1.8.2 also contains other improvements and additions to existing
+features:
+
+* Twitter social login, alongside the existing Facebook login;
+* PNG and GIF image upload support;
+* Some development improvements, including the final merging of `base` and
+`fixmystreet` templates, storing any Open311 error in the database, and tidying
+up some unused cobrands;
+* A few bug fixes, such as showing the right body user form value for fixed
+reports (thanks Jon Kristensen).
+
+See the full list of changes
