This release is simply a rebuild of the JBoss Developer Studio 9.0.0.GA installer that bundles JBoss EAP 6.4.0, due to CVE-2015-7501. The rebuild includes a patched version of EAP 6.4.0.GA.

The patched version fixes a security concern with apache common collections.

The standalone installer is unaffected and therefore required no change. Similarly, JBoss Tools users are also unaffected unless you manually downloaded and installed EAP 6.4.0. A patched version of the EAP 6.4.0.GA is available.

For what’s new in this release of JBoss Tools 4.3.0.Final or JBoss Developer Studio 9.0.0.GA, see our previous GA blog announcement.

We are already working on the next maintenance release for Eclipse Mars - JBoss Tools 4.3.1.Beta1 and Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio 9.1.0.Beta1 will be available shortly.

We are also working on our first Eclipse Neon based builds. Try them out here:

Enjoy!
