Patch Management Release 3.6
May 19, 2025
Eliminations Workflow from VMDR Prioritization tab
You can now initiate the Eliminations workflow from the VMDR Prioritization tab. This workflow allows you to select multiple assets using tags and apply a fix when a patch is not available for those assets. Unlike the workflow through the Vulnerabilities tab, which includes only 200 assets, one asset for each QID, this new workflow groups the related assets for each QID, including more than 200 assets in a job.
The View Risk Elimination option is enabled only when you select Group By: Vulnerability option. To enable this feature, contact your TAM.
Additionally, if the same QID is shared for multiple platforms, separate job creation windows for each platform are displayed.
Support Patching for Non-Security Updates for Linux Platform
We now support patching for non-security updates for the Linux assets. For more information on the supported operating systems, see NSU Supported Linux Operating Systems.
The non-security updates patching is supported for the LXAG version 7.2.0.0 and higher.
