You likely saw recent coverage of newly disclosed PHP vulnerabilities affecting software vendors across the industry. Here's a clear update on how Commvault responded. We acted quickly to assess and address the reported vulnerabilities, proactively deploying patches in accordance with security guidance. We have found no evidence of exploitation or business impact. On-premise Threatwise deployments require customers to apply patches within their own environments, and we are working directly with those customers to support remediation. The vast majority of customers do not need to take any action, as their products are either unaffected or have already been patched by Commvault. For the limited number of customers requiring action, we have proactively reached out with clear guidance and are supporting them directly through the patching process.  What customers should do Watch for communication from Commvault. Connect with your success team if you have questions. Thank you for your trust.

In this Readiverse Academy Tech Talk, Brian Bruno, Subject Matter Expert with Customer Support, shared a practical approach to making upgrades a routine part of operations rather than a reactive effort. The session emphasized the value of staying current with both feature and maintenance releases to improve security, supportability, and overall system health.A key takeaway was the importance of establishing a repeatable upgrade process. Brian outlined a five-stage framework: Inventory, Target, Stage, Execute, and Validate. He also discussed choosing the right release strategy, with Long-Term Support (LTS) releases recommended for most production environments due to their stability and predictable maintenance schedule, while Innovation releases are better suited for organizations t

To improve the reliability, scalability, and security of the Commvault platform, Commvault is deprecating DataServer-IP (DSIP) shares. Beginning with Commvault 11.44, customers can no longer create new DSIP shares. Existing DSIP configurations remain supported through March 31, 2027, giving customers time to identify affected storage pools and migrate to recommended shared-storage configurations. Although DSIP shares can be convenient, they are not designed to scale as environments and data volumes grow. Moving to direct NFS or SMB access provides a more reliable and secure architecture while aligning shared-storage access with standard, credentialed network protocols. We encourage you to review your configurations and plan applicable transitions as soon as practical. This article explains how to determine whether your environment is impacted and provides high-level migration steps.  Applies To: Commvault Software Customers Only This change applies to Commvault Software customers with

As we have shared throughout the last year, Microsoft is retiring Exchange Web Services (EWS) for Exchange Online in two phases, with the first milestone commencing October 1, 2026. This thread captures key dates, transition paths, resources, and recommended configuration steps to take in your Commvault and Azure environments to help reduce the risk of interruption to supported Exchange Online protection. As you review your environments and take steps to migrate to Graph, we know questions will arise. Put your questions here and our technical experts will review and respond regularly. Note this transition impacts anyone backing up Exchange Online, inclusive of Commvault SaaS and on-prem software. It does not impact Exchange On-Prem users. Microsoft and Commvault feature support, dates, permissions, and transition behavior may evolve further. SummaryThis short video overview from our Readiverse Academy team summarizes key phases, dates, and critical steps to take in your environments.
