Opencast 16.7 is a security and maintenance release.

The release contains a major bug fix release of the admin interface. For specific details, please refer to the release notes of the Admin Interface release 2024-11-19.

It also fixes a security vulnerability (CVE-2024-52797) with moderate severity, which may be exploitable for a denial-of-service attack. Therefor, we recommend upgrading to this release.
