Security patch applied: SUPEE-6285
—–
All Magento hosted stores greater than version 1.5 patched

Magento released a new round of security patches named SUPEE-6285. These patches cover a number of smaller information leaks and cross-site scripting vulnerabilities. Details on what was patched may be in the Magento patch document:

http://merch.docs.magento.com/ce/user_guide/Magento_Community_Edition_User_Guide.html#magento/patch-releases-2015.html

All LexiConn hosted Magento stores running Magento version 1.6 or higher have been automatically patched. As is our policy, we auto apply security patches once they are released and after we’ve tested them for stability. We do *not* auto apply bug fix patches or version upgrades.

We post updates about when security patches are applied in our News Forum:

The only minor issue we’ve heard about with this patch is a few custom third party extensions may not work in the admin panel for users that do not have full admin privileges. If you find an extension not working, please reach out to the extension developer to see if they have a patch to fix this.
