2014-10-02 - Shellshock Bug Update

Some of you may have received a "403 Forbidden" error message from a GiftTool page over the last few days. These issues were due to the security upgrades which we quickly put into place to combat the Shellshock bug, which is a serious threat to the internet.

Security is our priority, and the good news is that all credit card processing is secure! Unfortunately, our tightened security firewall has meant that some legitimate actions were blocked unnecessarily. We continue to review all our code to ensure that no further legitimate usage is being blocked by the tightened security firewall.

Our apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Let us know if you have any questions or if you are experiencing any issues, we are happy to help. As always, you can reach us at support@gifttool.com or 1.877.665.8665 (select option 2 for Support).
