Customers can download this patch from the Xerox Download Server and install on FFPS using the FFPS Software Update Manager. This feature is included in the FFPS v7, v8, and v9 software releases. Use of the Update Manager requires that the System Administrator has some Unix/Linux/Solaris skills, and experience starting the Command Line (terminal window) tool on the FFPS UI.

If a customer has difficulty performing these procedures, they should contact their local Xerox Service representative for further guidance.

Patch Installation for FFPS v6 and DocuSP v5
Because the FFPS Software Update tool is not available for the FFPS v6 and DocuSP v5 products, the patch must be provided by a Xerox CSE or Analyst. Please contact your local Xerox Service representative to request the patch file and if appropriate, schedule an action to have the patch installed. Because this patch is not mandatory and there is very little risk of vulnerability with FFPS, the action should be scheduled at a mutually-convenient time
