1. This week, the Security Community announced multiple code weaknesses and related vulnerability in PHP. Some of them can cause denial of service, but more problematic is that it would allow remote code execution that might result in full server take over. 

2. New Fortinet vulnerabilities were discovered that are very similar to the Juniper vulnerability announced a month ago. Fortinet is large Digital Edge partner. We verified with the hardware manufacturer that the firmware used in our devices are not affected by the vulnerability. 

3. 2 SAP HANA vulnerabilities were discovered, both can cause denial of service through disk overload. 

All Digital Edge managed or co-managed clients will be patched according to individual schedules.
