Critical Security update for Jira Service Desk Server & Data Center not available?

[buchhaltung@brightsolutions.de]

As per the Atlassian email there's a critical bug affecting Jira Service Desk:

• From version 4.4.0 before 4.4.3 (the fixed version for 4.4.x)

So with 4.4.2 we have to update to 4.4.3. But there is no version 4.4.3 available: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1213632/jira-service-desk/version-history

So either the email provides the wrong version number or Atlassian recommends an update that doesn't exist yet. Which one is the case? Do we have to update to 4.5 to stay secure?

Hi buchhaltung@brightsolutions.de , 

the article discussion the security fix says the following : 

• 4.4.3 will be available in the next few days

So you can either wait a few days, or as the 4.5 version is an Enterprise version, there were no new features added between 4.4 and 4.5. I would say that you are good to upgrade to 4.5.1 in this case.

Let me know if you have any questions,
