IBM i PTF Guide, Volume 24, Number 36
September 12, 2022 Doug Bidwell
Let’s get right into it. There are PDF transform issues with IBM i 7.5. This issue was encountered by our friends in San Diego: Thank you, Nancy, for sharing! They were receiving “Transformation task cancelled due to a print fidelity error” when converting from SCS to PDF. IBM issued the following PTFs to fix the issue:
PTF ID SI79773 5770SS1 SI79689 5770TS1 SI79684 5770TS1
Now, let’s turn to Security Bulletin: Vulnerability in IBM Java SDK affects IBM WebSphere Application Server and IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty due to July 2022 CPU plus deferred CVE-2021-2163. You can see more at this link. There are no PTFs for IBM i as yet, see the section in guide for your release and WAS level.
