    Hi Siva,

    thanks for posting this link - it was just what I was looking for. I am testing upgrade paths from Siteminder 12.52 -> 12.8 and ideally i wanted to be on most recent release of 12.52 before attempting any upgrade tests (I know its EOL now). I was able to download ca-wa-12.52-sp01-cr11-linux-x86-64.zip but I am not able to access any of the policy server CRs such as :-

    SiteMinder Web Access Manager 12.52
    SS04255 SiteMinder Policy Server r12.52 SP01 CR09

    is that because the underlying product itself (Siteminder 12.52 ) is EOL? I am still able to see the main releases for download but only SP1 and SP2 - no CRs. Going forward I realise that Siteminder 12.8 is the preferred option, I was just curious about one particular bug which I hit a while back and appeared to have been fixed in one of the CRs

    https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/symantec-security-software/identity-security/siteminder/12-52-02/release-notes/cumulative-releases/defects-fixed-in-12-52-sp1-cr08.html

    00472333
    DE203466
    Perl API generates a core dump when we try to add more values to the ValidateTargetDomains ACO parameter.
    I was able to confirm that the same sorts of Perl scripts worked fine in 12.8 though.

    regards

    Rod

    Hi Siva,

    Thank you for confirming. With respect to the availability of the Siteminder 12.52 CRs such as this one:-

    SS04255 SiteMinder Policy Server r12.52 SP01 CR09

    are these no longer available for download?

    Regards

    Rod
