Hi @dearjane_fan Please review the advisory we sent for CVE-2023-22527. It explicitly lists the impacted versions. No versions prior to Confluence 8.0.0 are known to be impacted. The above listed versions should be fine, though I would note they're all impacted by other critical and high severity CVEs, and I would…

Hi @Stumper Dumpel My team took a quick look at this one and couldn't reproduce it with a stock Confluence installation. Can you please reach out to our Support team via https://support.atlassian.com so they can help you investigate the issue? Thanks, James Ponting Engineering Manager - Confluence Data Center 

Hi @Tim Eddelbüttel I understand what you're saying and we're aware of the impact this has on our development partners. At this time, I don't have anything more to share. We'll provide an update to the community more broadly when we have one. Thanks for bearing with us as we work on this. Thanks, James Ponting Engineering…

Hey @JAMBHULKAR_SUYOG.SATYANAND_EXT I'd recommend reaching out to our support team for help with this one. We'll need to look into it further and we don't want to be posting your private log files on a public forum. You can contact our support team via https://support.atlassian.com. Thanks, James Ponting Engineering…

Hey @Ravi Varma What you've covered in in points 1 and 2 is my understanding also. We'll let you know through the EAP process if anything changes, but we haven't made any changes yet (again, discovery phase). The EAP due out soon shouldn't cause any issues on the connector front for this reason. Thanks, James Ponting…

Hey @GBE Thanks for providing your thoughts. The Appfire team have commented below, and we've provided our thoughts in resposne. Thanks, James Ponting Engineering Manager - Confluence Data Center 

Hey @Leszek Czaplis Thanks for providing your feedback. I'm familiar with the issue you're talking about. The bug itself is tracked at CONFSERVER-60152 - Running Confluence with Oracle Database Native Network Encryption Degrades Performance or Causes Outages and has been resolved as of Confluence 7.14.0. When you're on a…

I see @Michael Andreacchio beat me to the punch. What he's said is my understanding also. If we do make any changes, we'll communicate them so that you can assess the impact on your product. We'd already identified yours and a handful of others, so it's on our radar. Thanks for letting us know your perspective. We'll let…

Hey @Lazarus No worries, we help where we can :) To your points 2. That looks like we're not able to get the expected response, so it's rendering as a broken image. It's quite likely related to the Jenkins plugin as our code should wait to timeout (which is a different problem in and of itself). I think I'm going to…

Hi @Lazarus I just came across this post whilst working on other things. To your points * This is indeed a bug, and by chance, a fix is due out with Confluence 7.18.0: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-57639 * Confluence doesn't support limiting specific components behind permissions, so this sounds like the…

Hi Kim, That's not normal behaviour for our editor, and it sounds like there may be third party code interacting with your inputs. Unfortunately this isn't something we can easily investigate via the community forum, so I would suggest contacting the support team at https://support.atlassian.com and investigating with…

Hi All, I just wanted to leave a quick note on this community post in the same vein as the update on the various tickets. At this point we've not seen any additional reports indicating any new examples of duplicated content. With the reduction in reports of issues and not having seen any new duplication, we believe that…

Hey @tim I'll answer the question directly, then try and explain it for anyone who may need some additional context. CONFSERVER-59227 is fixed in * 7.4.14+ (7.4.14, 7.4.15 ...) * 7.12.3+ (7.12.3, 7.12.4, 7.12.5) * 7.13+ (7.13.*, 7.14.*, 7.15.* ...) CONFSERVER-69074 is fixed in * 7.4.15+ (7.4.15, 7.4.16 ...) * 7.13.4+…

Hey @Bill Taroli As it stands, we have all of the known issues documented above. I've updated the blog post, so it now hopefully covers a bit more of what you're chasing. Should you have additional questions, please open a ticket at https://support.atlassian.com and we'll see how we can assist further :) Thanks, James…

With regards to the thread dumps, if you'll need your Systems Administrator access to the server Confluence is running on, and assist with capturing and reviewing the thread dumps. If you're running Windows, you can use the following…

Hi @IT Einkauf Unfortunately this isn't going to be trivial to investigate. In terms of next steps, I'd be recommending that you take thread dumps from the instance like below * Start taking thread dumps every 10 seconds on a timer with a script * Begin the export process * When the export completes, save the file * Stop…

Hi All, I just saw this question is almost a year old, but hopefully this can help anyone else coming across similar issues. I'm going to mark this question as accepted as it will resolve the issue in question. There may be additional issues to address, but I think they would be better answered in additional questions.…

Hey Masaru, I know this is an older question, but I wanted to provide an answer for anyone else who comes across it. Defining a base URL is required for using Confluence behind a reverse proxy or load balancer. This configuration allows you to set the public facing URL that is used to contact the reverse proxy forwarding…

Hey Heiko, The error you're seeing is generally caused by Confluence being unable to contact the database. We can see from the error that Confluence hasn't written the database configuration to confluence.cfg.xml yet as it hasn't been able to obtain a connection. I can see from the above that the database is being…

Hi Jeffery, Could you provide some additional information as to why you're hoping to avoid using plugins? With the method linked in your original question, I'm not sure that it's possible to use it just in a table. I believe it's less precise than that. Thanks, James

Hi Jarvin, I have some thoughts that might help you narrow this issue down. With the information available, it's a little hard to definitively say whether your hardware is sufficient for your instance. Everyone's usage of Confluence is different, so their hardware needs are different. Also be aware the page you linked to…

Hi Jeffery, I think I might have an answer for this one! There's a third party plugin called Visibility for Confluence that allows for conditional macros. This mean you can hide or show content depending on whether a user is logged in or not. I'd recommend experimenting with it a bit before using it on sensitive data, but…
