Where to find Broadcom Security Advisories

[Kim Peelman]

Did you know that Broadcom has an entire site dedicated to Security Advisories? This is a convenient way for customers to stay informed about security notifications, including Common Vulnerability Scores and related patches. 

• Check out the Broadcom Security Advisories. 
• Subscribe to Proactive Notifications.

Looking for information on Apache Log4j 2? HERE is the security advisory. You will see Gen is listed under "Not-Affected Products."

Scenario: I've signed up for security notifications. BUT, How do I know about previous security advisories?

Answer: All of Gen's security advisories come with a correlating PTF with a description of "Security Maintenance".

For example, on the Solution & Patches page for distributed platforms, press Ctrl F to search the page for any security maintenance updates.

Just to add to Kim's comments, the history of all Mainframe Software Security Advisories can be found from "Security Advisories" on your Support Portal "My Dashboard - Mainframe Software" page

 

The direct link is: https://support.broadcom.com/group/ecx/security-advisory

The list on that page can then be filtered on the product name using the Search field.
N0TE: That search's results may also show non-Gen advisories. That may be because Gen is listed as under "Non-Affected Products" in those other advisories or because the string "gen" is being found within other product names.
