Who’s affected?
Versions affected: Umbraco 9.0.0-9.5.3 and 10.0.0-10.1.0
How do I prepare?
Because we are looking at a patch upgrade, we expect the fix to be rather straightforward and to only require minimal time per project.
As this is a security patch, we highly advise you to put aside resources to get this fixed. This is also why we give you this information before we release the patch publicly.
Note that the patches will be made available for the latest minor versions and also included in the Umbraco 10.2 release scheduled for next week. Upgrading to the latest available minor version can be done prior to the patch release and means you are optimally prepared.
How to upgrade on September 6?
If you’re using Umbraco versions 9.5 or 10.1 then you’ll be able to upgrade to a new patch version of these releases the way you would normally upgrade.
How do you check which version you are on? Reach out with this blog post to your technical contact for your Umbraco site and they will be able to take care of the necessary precautions.
