Hi Bill,

Laserfiche Discussions reached its End of Technical Support Date on Oct 1, 2022.

No support is available for Discussions. Laserfiche no longer develops, repairs, maintains, or test the module. The module uses older third-party libraries that have since been identified to have High and Critical security vulnerabilities. These will not be patched, and you cannot update them yourself.

While we love to see people find perfect use cases for Laserfiche products, please do not use Discussions for whatever this one is.

Deploying out of support software with known vulnerabilities that cannot receive security patches runs afoul of most organizations' IT security policies. It conflicts with every compliance standard I'm aware of, and even has the potential to cause issues with cyber insurance policies, as an organization will typically have had to attest that they do not have things like out of support software with known vulnerabilities that cannot receive security patches in their environments (that aren't isolated on separate locked down networks, at least).

If you make a separate post about the use case, I'd hope some folks in the community can chime in with viable alternative solutions to address it.
