Magnolia CORE 5.6.9 corrects a security vulnerability and brings the following changes and improvements:
Changes for authors
Improved performance of the About Magnolia app
We have fixed a bug in the About Magnolia app to decrease the start-up time of the app.
Changes for developers
Publishing only specific paths
Receivers can be configured to publish only a specific path in a workspace. For example, the following receiver configuration publishes only the /specificPath
path of the website
workspace and ignores everything else:
WorkspaceDefinition
propertiesfromPath
andtoPath
are set to/specificPath
.- The
workspace
property is set towebsite
and theexcluded
property tofalse
.
Tomcat 9 server configuration with relaxed query chars
Tomcat 9 is less tolerant regarding special characters compared to some previous versions. To bring back the same support for special characters as it was on Tomcat 8 — for instance to query the Delivery endpoint API with filters — we have added the [
, ]
, and |
characters to the relaxedQueryChars
attribute on the Connector
element in the server.xml
configuration file.

Changelog
See the 5.6.9 changelog for all the changes.
Updated modules
Please be aware that the version numbers for the Magnolia main and UI projects are not in sync with the version number of this release.
If you are updating from an earlier version:
Projects based on an older maven archetype may not build correctly starting with Magnolia 5.6.3 because the version of the Magnolia main modules is not the same as the Magnolia bundle anymore. If you experience a problem, please update your project parent pom.
