Scheduled - Advice
We would like to inform you of an upcoming GovCMS Drupal 10 (D10) Drupal 11 (D11) release and deployment. It addresses a recent security advisory issued by Drupal.org. GovCMS assessed the MODERATELY CRITICAL risk as they applied to D11 distribution, subsequently the security residual risk remained MODERATELY CRITICAL. The D11 distribution will continue to be supported after this update.
As a reminder, a SaaS deployment block is in place ONLY while we update the production branches. During this time, you will still be able to develop and deploy to non-production feature branches. We are wanting to give you as much lead time as possible, should you need to adjust your timeframes. PaaS deployments schedules are not impacted.
