Security Advisory: JetBackup S3 Credential Disclosure
This is a security release for AlmaLinux 9, CentOS 7. Update the product on every affected server to the patched release — there is no workaround, and unpatched servers remain exposed until updated.

Default Update CMD
yum update -y
Fix Commands
CentOS 7 / AlmaLinux 9
yum clean all

What this means under a SharedLicense license
Your SharedLicense license itself is not affected — this is a change in AlmaLinux 9, CentOS 7 software, not in licensing. Update the product through its standard update channel. Licenses keep working through updates; nothing needs re-issuing or re-activating.
A configuration issue in JetBackup could expose S3 storage credentials in server logs, potentially compromising backup destinations.
