For customers on the annual upgrade path, we strongly recommend that you install this update at the earliest opportunity. While we have not experienced any reported incidents relating to these vulnerabilities to date, failure to install this update could leave you exposed to malicious third-party attacks. For more information, please refer to the following Security Advisory announcements:

These vulnerabilities have been addressed in release 13.0.2, which is available for download from the Download Manager.

Administrators are strongly encouraged to upgrade their on-site Sugar instances running 13.0.1 or lower to version 13.0.2 to prevent potential exploitation of these weaknesses

  • 88261: Attempting to download a PDF file may fail if the PDF template contains an image that is hosted on a site using "HTTPS" in the URL. As a workaround, use an image that does not contain "HTTPS" in the URL.
