WatchGuard is pleased to announce the release of Fireware XTM v11.7.4 and WSM 11.7.4. Full information on the issues fixed and enhancements in v11.7.4 is available in the Resolved Issues section of the Release Notes. Key highlights include:
- spamBlocker improvements to improve the detection accuracy and reduce false positives, returning to use of CommTouch RPD technology.
- Support for two new direct connect USB modems - Sierra Wireless AirCard 313U and Verizon Wireless LTI USB551L
- Disabled TLS SSL Compression to avoid CRIME exploit vulnerabilty (CVE-2012-4929)

Note: When you upgrade an XTM 5 Series or XTM 8 Series to Fireware XTM v11.7.4, the XTM device will reboot twice during the upgrade process. This is expected behavior and specific to this upgrade because of a need to repartition disk space to accommodate future feature growth.
