We are very pleased to announce the release of Yii Framework version 2.0.41. Please refer to the instructions at https://www.yiiframework.com/download/ to install or upgrade to this version.

Notable changes in this release:

• Hardened security by invalidating all active sessions and "remember me" cookies on authKey change. Note that it requires properly implemented getAuthKey() and validateAuthKey() methods of yii\web\IdentityInterface. Check upgrade guide for details.
• Ability to create URLs for non-GET-verb rules.
• Faster request parsing for REST UrlRule with prefix handling.

Thanks to all Yii community members who contribute to the framework, translators who keep documentation translations up to date and community members who answer questions at forums.

There are many active Yii communities so if you need help or want to share your experience, feel free to join them.

A complete list of changes can be found in the CHANGELOG.
