Fixes

Changes

Previously a Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition (SSCE) database was being used for this purpose, but SSCE is no longer supported by Microsoft. Once the SQL Backup Server Components have been updated on a server, it is safe to uninstall the SSCE runtime from the server.

10.1.6 - August 17th, 2020

Fixes

  • SB-5971 Removed strong naming from SQL Backup.
  • Replaced the log4net logging library with Serilog. A vulnerability has been reported in log4net (CVE-2018-1285, CVSS 9.8), and although SQL Backup is not subject to the vulnerability, we have removed log4net to help avoid false positives in automated security scans.
    PLEASE NOTE: If you have ever modified the logging configuration of the Hosted Storage Client (to change the location of the log files, for example), then you will need to reapply your customisation to the new logging configuration file. Please contact Redgate Support if you think you may be affected.
