No old-style find/replace patch for a HIGH security vulnerability? Is that intentional?

I will be upgrading from 1.2.11 ...
What does this mean,

"Please note, that you need to run the upgrade script for this version. This is so the templates may be updated.
There are no database schema changes in this version."

You can run a comparison with the old pm.php.
IIRC, it's just an additional check for smilies - just one extra line.

This will replace a MyBB 1.2.3 pm.php fine (haven't tested on earlier versions), so...
But I'd like find & replace patches as well.

It means you'll need to run /install/upgrade.php after uploading the files.

A very smooth upgrade. *EDIT* nvm I'm facing a problem, I'll make a thread about it in support.

Quote:There was an error perfoming the update.
An unknown error occurred.

Yes, that was intentional. The fix required too many changes to make it just a find/replace patch.

One more thing..I don't recall getting an email about this security update and I am on the mailing list? Anyone else
