Subject:  Monthly Platform Patch for the API Gateway – August 2024

Platform patches upgrade the underlying OS packages and other (non- Layer7 API) hardware/virtual appliance components where Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) have been raised.

These patches are delivered on a monthly basis unless a CVE has been discovered that requires immediate attention. Currently, none of the CVEs raised has caused issues with the Layer7 API Gateway or API Developer Portal, but they are being addressed as a preventative measure.

To bring the platform up to the most recent level, apply the most recent monthly patch.

We recommend that all Gateway container and appliance customers (both hardware or virtual) of our Layer7 API Gateway/Developer Portal remain current with the platform patch level and the core application level.

You can download the latest monthly platform patch from the Layer7 API Management Solutions & Patches page or pull the latest image from Docker Hub.

Note: Before you patch an appliance gateway, please ensure that you have sufficient disk space in the appliance to avoid space issues. If you encounter any space issues, please follow these instructions to add additional disk space. Increase Disk Space in Virtual Appliance
