-------- DESCRIPTION  
---------------------------------------------------------

iTweak Upload does not escape file names when displaying uploaded files. This

  * iTweak Upload 6.x-1.x prior to 6.x-1.2

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed iTweak Upload
module, there is nothing you need to do.

  * If you use iTweak Upload 6.x-1.x, upgrade to iTweak Upload 6.x-1.2 [2]
  * If you use iTweak Upload 6.x-2.x, upgrade to iTweak Upload 6.x-2.3 [3]
