@Sonja_Bauernfeind I think that me, like many of us, need to know what @jeremyseipel is asking you. Is Patch 11 the one that fixes any visualization bug and CVE issues? or should we wait for Patch 12?
To fix security vulnerabilities for sure is important however, to fix something and break some other things doesn't look the good way.
PS: I'm not saying that your work is easy, not at all but, we need to be sure that the latest Patch is not going to open a new can of worms.

Example: May Patch 11.
Any other issues reported (which are not related to extensions) have not been linked to the patches directly and must be investigated by Support separately.
Thanks @Sonja_Bauernfeind thanks for the update. Based on what you posted, my take is there will be no additional patches released for this vulnerability, so the best course of action is to proceed follow standard patching procedures and start updating environments one at a time.
there is no solution yet with the latest version, but also not with the latest patches - the support case is still open and I am constantly providing new information to the support team.
I will let you know as soon as there is an update.
