Qlik Sense Patch Thursday - Addressing the Node.js vulnerability

[Jamie_Gregory]

Hello Qlik Users,

It’s a special Thursday this week as we have a couple patches available today that also address the Node.js vulnerability. Please apply the appropriate patch as soon as possible.

If the initial version of Qlik Sense installed was prior to version June 2019 or earlier, then the Qlik Sense Root Certificate must be recreated. For more information on recreating certificates, please review the following materials: 

• Recreating the Qlik Sense Root Certificate (Root CA) - Use Powershell scripts to recreate the certificates (preferred method) 

• Manually Recreating The Qlik Sense Root CA - Manually recreate the certificates 

• Qlik Fix: How to Recreate or Delete Certificates in Qlik Sense - General overview of the manual process (please refer to the article for manually recreating the certificates for exact steps) 

The following patches are now available on the Qlik download site:

Qlik Sense Patch
April 2019 Patch 8	Release Notes
June 2019 Patch 11	Release Notes

As with all software, please follow best practices when upgrading by backing up your Qlik Sense environment and testing the patch in a QA environment first.
