IBM i PTF Guide, Volume 25, Number 1
January 11, 2023 Doug Bidwell
The New Year is always marked with celebration, but this year we also celebrate 25 years of the PTF Guide! The best way I can think of for you to celebrate is to make sure you are up to date on your PTF work.
We start off 2023 with a series of Security Bulletins. First up, IBM Navigator for i is vulnerable to log file access, obtaining file attributes, and SQL Injection attacks due to multiple vulnerabilities. Get the details HERE.
IBM i Release 5770DG1 IBM HTTP Server for i Group PTF 7.5 SF99952 - 05 7.4 SF99662 - 25 7.3 SF99722 - 42
We also have some data to share when adding team members to new and existing cases, which you can find HERE.
Another Security Bulletin regarding Vulnerability in Kernel (CVE-2021-45485) that affects Power HMC. Find out more HERE.
