(CVE-2012-5920)\n\nWarning: Before applying the update, back up your existing JBoss ON\ninstallation (including its databases, applications, configuration files,\nthe JBoss ON server\u0027s file system directory, and so on).\n\nAll users of JBoss Operations Network 3.1.1 as provided from the Red Hat\nCustomer Portal are advised to upgrade to JBoss Operations Network 3.1.2.",
