Xerox has announced the release of its April 2025 Security Patch Update for the FreeFlow® Print Server v2 running on Windows® 10, reinforcing the company’s commitment to robust cybersecurity for its production print platforms. The update, officially released on May 12, 2025, delivers critical security enhancements and software updates for supported devices, including the Xerox® iGen® 5 Press, Baltoro™ HF Production Inkjet Press, and Brenva™ HD Production Inkjet Press. With this release, Xerox continues its focus on delivering timely, tested security updates to help customers safeguard their print environments in an ever-changing threat landscape. Xerox issues security patch updates for FreeFlow Print Server v2 on a quarterly basis, with releases scheduled in January, April, July, and October. Xerox encourages customers to periodically evaluate their security needs and work with Xerox Service for patch installation. Alternatively, network-based installation is available for those who prefer direct updates from Microsoft or via the FreeFlow Print Server Update Manager. For environments with strict security requirements, such as government agencies, Xerox recommends using USB media, which can be scanned for malware prior to installation. Notably, the OpenJDK, Firefox, and OpenSSL components remediate several critical vulnerabilities, while the Apache HTTP update primarily includes bug fixes rather than new security mitigations. Xerox strongly advises customers to perform a full system backup and create a Windows® Restore Point before applying the update.
