SugarCRM has released version 7.9.4.0 for all editions. The 7.9.4.0 release is available for download to on-site customers and has automatically been applied to 7.9 customers in the Sugar cloud environment.

We have recently detected security vulnerabilities and, to minimize potential risks, those issues have been investigated and addressed in this updated release.

Following our investigations, we have no indication that the vulnerabilities were exploited. However, we recommend that you immediately take the steps outlined below to ensure that your data stays protected:
Cloud Customers
If you are hosted in the Sugar cloud, no action is required as these vulnerabilities and bugs have been patched in the cloud environment. If you have additional questions related to how your instance has been affected, please open a case with our support team.
On-Site Customers
If you host your instance on-site (in any environment outside of the Sugar cloud environment), please carefully review the following instructions and take the actions outlined below at the earliest opportunity. Failure to take these actions could leave you exposed to malicious attacks:
Version 7.9.x
Please visit our Download Manager to download the latest patch for your release, 7.9.4.0, which address these vulnerabilities. Our Installation and Upgrade Guide contains the appropriate guidance to apply these patches to your instance.
Version 7.8.x or below

We will then supply a module loadable package that can be applied to your current version and edition of Sugar. Please note that we will only supply hotfixes for supported versions.
