We have officially released versions 6.5.23 for all editions and 6.7.12 and 7.5.2.4 for all commercial editions. The reason for these patches is SugarCRM recently detected security vulnerabilities that have since been carefully investigated and addressed. As always, we take data security and the protection of your private information very seriously at SugarCRM. We have taken action to minimize potential risks.
Following our investigations, we have no reason to believe that the vulnerabilities were exploited. However, we recommend that you take the immediate steps below to ensure that your data stays protected:
On-Demand Customers
If you are an On-Demand customer, you do not need to take any action as we have already applied patches to address the identified vulnerabilities. All customers hosted in the On-Demand environment that may have been susceptible to these issues have been patched or upgraded and are therefore protected against these issues.
On-Site Customers
If you host your instance On-Site, you should 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:
