CFv11 Patch 18 failing MD5 checksum

So,

Wanting to apply the latest CFv11 patches due to all the press coverage about security problems being exploited in the wild I visited the patch download page at ColdFusion 11 updates but when I pull down patch 18 and run an MD5 checksum the result I get is NOT what's listed on that page.

I have downloaded a bunch of the previous patch files and run the same check (openssl md5 <filename> in case anyone thinks I'm doing it wrong) and they all match what's printed on the download page. It's only patch 18 that doesn't match.

I'm trying to find out if that's a mistake by Adobe or there's some sort of corruption of tampering with the hotfix18.jar file.

Any help appreciated as this is holding up patching for security.

    Hi,

    There is some issue with region link, we have updated the doc from the backend. I am working with the team to get it synched up.

    That MD5 checksum matches what I'm seeing.

    Thanks for the quick response, I'll now get on a patch our servers.
