Summary: As is true of many other software companies, NetMotion has discovered all current versions of the Mobility client are incompatible with some upcoming updates to Windows. Though not part of the initial Spectre and Meltdown updates, when these Windows updates are applied, systems running any Mobility client for Windows prior to 11.32 will not operate as expected. You MUST upgrade to Mobility v11.32 before applying them. Do not delay.

Advisory: Current versions of Mobility are fully compatible with the initial round of Microsoft’s Spectre and Meltdown updates. We expect that Microsoft will release more patches addressing these vulnerabilities; we will keep you informed as to whether they will affect your NetMotion deployment. In the wake of the initial round of patches, we learned that Microsoft’s Windows 10 Spring release is incompatible with all current versions of the Mobility client. In the past, the Spring release has been available in the March timeframe but with the current situation involving Spectre and Meltdown, we cannot be sure these releases will not happen sooner. We expect the updates to Windows 8 and 7 will also be incompatible. We are releasing v11.32 clients for all Windows platforms to address the incompatibility.

If you apply the upcoming Windows update, systems running any Mobility client for Windows prior to 11.32 will not operate as expected. Because we don’t know precisely when Microsoft will release the updates, you must upgrade your Windows systems to Mobility v11.32 as soon as possible. Do not delay.
