ArcGIS for Server Security (January 2015) Patch

Published: February 6, 2015

Summary

This security patch addresses vulnerabilities found in ArcGIS for Server. Esri recommends that all customers using ArcGIS Server 10.1 SP1 QIP and 10.2 apply this patch. Customers who are using 10.2 should first apply 10.2.1 or 10.2.2.

Description

EsriĀ® announces the ArcGIS for Server Security (January 2015) Patch. Esri recommends that all customers using ArcGIS for Server 10.1 SP1 QIP, 10.2.1, and 10.2.2 apply this patch. This patch deals specifically with the issues listed under Issues Addressed with this patch.

 

Esri strongly recommends the installation of the latest security patches on all products. If you are using the ArcGIS Web Adaptor for Java, you must also install the ArcGIS Web Adaptor for Java (January 2015) Security Patch.

 

This security patch is cumulative and includes several non-security related fixes from an earlier patch, the ArcGIS 10.2.2 for (Desktop, Engine, Server) Geodatabase and Feature Service Sync Optimization Patch. Some of the geodatabase fixes from that earlier patch (NIM08625, NIM099098, NIM100503, NIM091900, NIM094929, NIM088921, NIM098196, NIM100823, NIM101030, and NIM101204) require a geodatabase upgrade to take effect. A geodatabase upgrade is not required for the security fixes to be effective and no new problems will occur if the geodatabase is not upgraded.
