Domibus 5.1.5 released with security enhancements


On 17 June 2024, we released Domibus 5.1.5, the latest version of the eDelivery AS4 Access Point sample implementation. This version includes important security updates and fixes for recent vulnerabilities.

In Domibus 5.1.5, we have introduced a new property that enforces strict rules for all password-type properties. Additionally, the WebLogic datasource configuration, eDeliveryDs, has been updated to disable support for global transactions. We have also applied security updates to third-party libraries and APIs used in Domibus.

For all improvements and bug fixes, refer to our release page.

Domibus 5.1.5 is backward compatible with version 5.1.4, ensuring a smooth transition for users who decide to upgrade. The upgrade to Domibus 5.1.5 is not mandatory, but we highly recommend it to enhance your Access Point security.

Still for security reasons, users installing any of the Domibus packages labelled as "Full Distribution" should update their application servers to the latest version after installation.

The Domibus 5.1.5 documentation is available here.
