ColdFusion (2021 release) Update 1
On Windows, if ColdFusion is running as a service with a non-default custom service name, shut down ColdFusion, and then apply the Update using ColdFusion package manager on all applicable ColdFusion instances with the command:
cfpm.bat update all
What's new and changed
ColdFusion (2021 release) Update 1 (release date, 22 March, 2021) features the following:
- Address vulnerabilities mentioned in the document APSB21-16.
- Activation and deactivation of Virtual Core licenses. To accommodate virtual core licensing, few changes were done in the license validation workflow. This can result in signature validation errors when the server comes up after the update is applied. If the server is online, activation will be re-attempted and server will continue as usual if the activation is successful. If the server is offline, users will need to offline-activate the server once again as the server could have reverted to the Trial or Developer mode. This is a one-time activity and will not be needed to be done when future updates are released.
- Introduced support for RHEL 8.3, WildFly 23, Tomcat 9.0.43, PostgreSQL 13, Oracle 19c (2018), and MS SQL Server 2019.
- Bug fixes.
Note: After installing this update, you might encounter the message after updating all packages using the ColdFusion Package Manager. The message is purely cosmetic and does not impact the installation of the packages.

Prerequisites
- On 64-bit computers, use 64-bit JRE for 64-bit ColdFusion.
- If the ColdFusion server is behind a proxy, specify the proxy settings for the server to get the update notification and download the updates. Specify proxy settings using the system properties below in the jvm.config for a stand-alone installation, or corresponding script file for JEE installation.
- http.proxyHost
- http.proxyPort
- http.proxyUser
- http.proxyPassword
- For ColdFusion running on JEE application servers, stop all application server instances before installing the update.
Installation
ColdFusion Administrator
In Package Manager > Packages, click Check for Updates in Core Server.
After it detects an update, click Update. The core package gets updated the the latest update.
All installed packages also get updated.
Restart ColdFusion for the changes to take effect.
Install the update manually
- Click the link to download the JAR.
- Execute the following command on the downloaded JAR. You must have privileges to start or stop ColdFusion service and full access to the ColdFusion root directory.
Windows: <cf_root>/jre/bin/java.exe -jar <jar-file-dir>/hotfix-001-325996.jar
Linux-based platforms: <cf_root>/jre/bin/java -jar <jar-file-dir>/hotfix-001-325996.jar
Ensure that the JRE bundled with ColdFusion is used for executing the downloaded JAR. For standalone ColdFusion, this must be at, <cf_root>/jre/bin.
Install the update from a user account that has permissions to restart ColdFusion services and other configured webservers .
For further details on how to manually update the application, see the help article.
Post installation
After applying this update, the ColdFusion build number should be 2021,0,01,325996.
Uninstallation
To uninstall the update, perform one of the following:
- In ColdFusion Administrator, click Uninstall in Server Update > Updates > Installed Updates.
- Run the uninstaller for the update from the command prompt. For example, java -jar {cf_install_home}/{instance_home}/hf_updates/hf-2021-00001-325996/uninstall /uninstaller.jar
If you can't uninstall the update using the above-mentioned uninstall options, the uninstaller could be corrupted. However, you can manually uninstall the update by doing the following:
- Delete the update jar from {cf_install_home}/{instance_name}/lib/updates.
- Copy all folders from {cf_install_home}/{instance_name}/hf-updates/{hf-2021-00001-325996}/backup directory to {cf_install_home}/{instance_name}/
