Subject. It appeared for download via CC and mentioned on some Adobe web pages but I cannot find description for this release. Thanks.

Thank you.


A bit more insight. The official bulletin will be updated/released on Feb 8th. The gist of the security issue was that opening a PDF that contained 3D content could be used as an exploit. That issue was patched in 22.5.5 and 23.1.1. I'll try and post the the link once it's live.

Hi

There's no fixes listed for version 22.5.5, the last was 22.5.4

https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/fixed-issues-history.html

So the 22.5.5 update was more than likely a security update

Thanks, but this already happened with 22.5.4; Adobe published the list of fixes long time after release. With this thread I expressed a hope that somebody from Adobe updates this infoemation timely and dutifuly, or other knowleadgelle folks inform me [and other interested users] on the details.

The page you linked to says at the top:
"Adobe provides technical support and security fixes for the current version and the prior version. Bug fixes are only provided for the current version."

 

 

Since 22.5.5 was released three months after 23.0 and was not the current version, @Ged_Traynor is correct that this version would only have security fixes.

 

I hope this helps, Ivan.

In the CC application, did you try this after selecting a product:

Your question was correctly answered and now, there is a newer version to replace that older one which was just a security fix.


By @TheDigitalDog

Nope. I asked which fixes, is this hard to understand? "Security" says nothing specific. As I mentioned, security fixes in some older versions led to inability to open certain files. Just an example. As Adobe released new build, there is something new (indeed, "new" means any changes, including "security fixes"), and I want to know what it is.


Your question was correctly answered and now, there is a newer version to replace that older one which was just a security fix. Adobe never promised to supply you with every underlying fix; security or otherwise. You can ask. You did. There is a newer version that supersedes that version. Those fixes were outlined by Adobe.

Is this so hard to understand?
