(PTF: 2026.070.1)
New Features
-
Added a new End User License Agreement that must be accepted before installing or upgrading.
Fixes
-
CVE-2026-93924 is a Remote Command Execution Vulnerability within Halcyon IBM i whereby commands can be sent plain-text to the Halcyon Receive Monitor and executed by the Action Monitors.
This release reduces the attack surface, until a full solution using TLS communications can be provided, by:
-
Changing existing *I5 Remote Locations to use *ENCRYPT Data Encoding on upgrade.
-
Changing "Work with Remote Locations" (WRKRMTLOC) to only allow *ENCRYPT Data Encoding for *I5 Remote Locations.
-
Removing the ability to send plain-text commands to the Network Receive Monitor.
-
Considerations
-
If Enterprise Console is in use, we strongly recommend enabling encrypted communications for IBM i devices in Device Manager.
-
Once your network is configured, we strongly recommend setting System Default HAL/NETAUTOCFG to *NO on all Halcyon Environments. This will help prevent attacks from unknown sources.
