With the new custom patch functionality it is possible to update your Adobe Creative Cloud suite.
<content>

SecTeer VulnDetect recommends an "old" patch for OneDrive e.g. 25.184.921.4 (at the time of writing) as the latest available/recommended patch because this is the version that Microsoft makes available on their official download channels.
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/onedrive/download

Some hosts already show a higher installed version, e.g. 25.206.1021.3.

That can look a bit odd because the “recommended” version may appear lower than what you already have. This is happening because the OneDrive client will auto-update itself shortly after.

SecTeer will continue to show e.g. 25.184.921.4 as the latest available patch until Microsoft publishes a newer build as the default downloadable installer. The same is the case for certain other Microsoft products such as 365 Apps and Edge too, where Microsoft tend to release some undocumented pre-release versions or at least versions that aren't available for download via the usual official sources.

We plan to release and maintain OneDrive patches as soon as a build is officially available for download.

Starting with the 7.x release, the new CCleaner installer now triggers a Windows UAC prompt even when executed from an elevated context (such as Administrator or SYSTEM).
To accommodate this, the patch will still be made available as Non-Silent and marked with a special indicator to alert users:

This indicator helps ensure that users are aware of the expected UAC prompt before enabling the approval.

Additionally, the language parameter previously supported by SecTeer (based on Piriform’s official documentation) no longer functions as of version 7.x.
Our tests confirm that:

• The /L=<languageCode> argument is ignored by the 7.x installer
• The installer now defaults to English, regardless of the parameter specified

This means that localized installations are no longer possible. The patch will revert the application interface back to English until the vendor restores multi-language support.

Thank you for your understanding.

We want to make you aware of a known issue affecting the latest Adobe Acrobat/Reader update (version 25.001.20744).
This release has introduced significant printing problems, which are impacting a wide range of users.

Adobe has confirmed the root cause of the issue and is working on a fix, expected in an upcoming Quick Fix Engineering (QFE) release. You can follow the official discussion here:
https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-reader-discussions/failure-to-print-since-update-to-2025-001-20744/m-p/15524749

Recommendation

Until Adobe provides a patch, we recommend avoiding the latest update and continuing with the previous stable version instead.
SecTeer has already adjusted the patching mechanism so this recommendation is automatically applied.

We have tested downgrading directly from version 25.001.20744 using the prior MSP package. Unfortunately, this method does not successfully roll back the update.

The only reliable method is to uninstall the current version, reinstall the previous stable version, and then disable automatic updates until Adobe publishes a fix.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Hi,

Due to Zoom phasing out support for Windows 32-bit by December 2025, all upgrades for 64-bit OS's will be done using the 64-bit installer.

For more details, please refer to the official vendor announcement:
https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0079569

1. Create a tag for all hosts with reMarkable installed

From the Applications page, click on the result under the Installations column to view hosts with reMarkable (prior releases) installed and use the Manage Tags for Selected Hosts button to create the new tag.

2. Uninstall Prior Versions

Using the Software Deployment feature, apply the reMarkable (prior releases) uninstall and reMarkable (latest) deployment jobs to the tagged hosts.

Additional inspections might be required for the job to fully complete.

Note: VLC now ships the MSI again, we have re-enabled support for updating MSI based installations. The below is kept for those who wants to change installers, as well as an example of how to do similar things for other applications.

Hi,

If you're experiencing issues with VLC not updating, this may be because the vendor stopped creating MSI installers as of version (3.21). We rely on official vendor installers and will update our package as soon as the MSI becomes available.

You can follow the official discussion thread here for more details:
https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=164735&p=544928&hilit=msi#p544928

To help differentiate between installer types, we've updated VLC's title to clearly indicate whether it's an MSI or EXE installer:

VLC media player (EXE)
VLC media player (MSI)

To switch your MSI installation to the EXE version, use the Software Deployment feature to create a combined job that removes the MSI and deploys the EXE version simultaneously:

When deploying the latest installer, QGIS does not replace the previous version. Instead, it installs alongside the existing version, resulting in a side-by-side installation.

In order to accommodate this caveat, we have the following workaround:

1. Create a tag for all hosts with QGIS installed

From the Applications page, click on the result under the Installations column to view hosts with QGIS (prior releases) installed and use the Manage Tags for Selected Hosts button to create the new tag.

2. Uninstall Prior Versions

Using the Software Deployment feature, apply the QGIS (prior releases) uninstall and QGIS (latest) deployment jobs to the tagged hosts.

Additional inspections might be required for the job to fully complete.

Note:

Alternatively, using two separate jobs (one for uninstall and one for installation) is also possible, though keep in mind that the uninstall job would then run only once and need reactivation if required again. Therefore, we suggest using a combined job to remove and deploy QGIS versions simultaneously, as this is the smart, automated approach.

When deploying the latest installer, R for Windows does not replace the previous version. Instead, it installs alongside the existing version, resulting in a side-by-side installation.

In order to accommodate this caveat, we have the following workaround:

1. Create a tag for all hosts with R for Windows installed

From the Applications page, click on the result under the Installations column to view hosts with R for Windows installed

Use the Manage Tags for Selected Hosts button to create the new tag.

2. Uninstall Prior Versions

Using the Software Deployment feature, create a job that applies the R for Windows (prior releases) uninstall job and deploys the R for Windows (latest) job to the tagged hosts.
You can choose to do this on every update by setting the Job Options to "Install or uninstall once" (non-persistent), or use the "Always install or uninstall" which should ensure that it gets updated automatically as long as Tags are assigned correctly.

3. Inspect the tagged hosts in order to get immediate results, else the job will apply on the next scheduled inspection.

On the Tags page, click under the Hosts column to view and inspect the hosts associated with each tag.

Note: Some hosts might require a second inspection in order to complete the upgrade.

TeamViewer QuickSupport is a portable app that cannot be supported for patching.

As portable applications do not install, there is no automatic process to delete them, unlike traditional applications that have registry information and provide a silent uninstallString, therefore, portable applications can only be deleted and not uninstalled.

This script removes TeamViewer QuickSupport.
It should be noted that deleting files in the SYSTEM context recursively into areas controlled by users is considered bad practice, we have tried to compensate for this by checking if the file is a symbolic link, before removing it.

# Define the paths to search and the file names to delete
$rootPath = "C:\"
$filesToDelete = @("TeamViewerQS.exe", "TeamViewerQS_x64.exe")

# Function to safely delete files without following symlinks
function Remove-File {
    param (
        [string]$Path,
        [string[]]$Files
    )
    
    # Get all directories and files in the specified path
    $items = Get-ChildItem -Path $Path -Recurse -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
    
    foreach ($item in $items) {
        # Skip if the item is a symlink
        if ($item.Attributes -band [System.IO.FileAttributes]::ReparsePoint) {
            Write-Output "Skipping symlink: $($item.FullName)"
            continue
        }
        
        # Check if the item is one of the files to delete
        if ($Files -contains $item.Name) {
            try {
                Remove-Item -Path $item.FullName -Force -ErrorAction Stop
                Write-Output "Deleted: $($item.FullName)"
            } catch {
                Write-Error "Failed to delete: $($item.FullName) - $_"
            }
        }
    }
}

# Call the function to remove the files 
Remove-File -Path $rootPath -Files $filesToDelete

Custom Software Configuration:

It is possible to deploy AutoCAD LT with Custom Software.

The Custom Deployment Configuration should be the following:

The AutoCADLT.zip that is seen in the configuration is a modified ZIP. Please see the following screenshot on how to create it:

installer.exe and Collection.xml have been left out as this would allow customization without generating a new ZIP file.

After the task has been completed, we confirm seeing the following installed in the Autodesk folder on the target hosts:
AdODIS
AdskIdentitManager
AutoCAD Activity Insights
AutoCAD LT 2024
Genuine Service

You may be able to use the Custom Software feature to assist you with FortiClient VPN-only.

Please be mindful when deploying FortiClient over existing installations as there may be conflicts. To find out more about the upgrade paths check the URL below:
https://docs.fortinet.com/document/forticlient/7.2.0/upgrade-path

However, there is a number of different ways in which FortiClient can be configured during distribution, thus we can't predict if the approach you decide upon is compatible with the functionality currently provided in Custom Software.

We did make Proof-of-Concept deployments of Foxit products using MST files.
https://vulndetect.org/topic/2382/vulndetect-custom-software-upgrading-foxit-phantompdf-to-foxit-pdf-editor

The documents for FortiClient suggests that it also supports MST files.

It also suggests that XML files can be used.

Please see the full docs here:
https://docs.fortinet.com/document/forticlient/6.0.0/configurator-tool/343622/forticlient-configurator-tool
https://docs.fortinet.com/document/forticlient/6.0.0/configurator-tool/754658/deploying-forticlient-windows-installation-packages

Quote: "Starting with FortiClient 5.6.0, an account for the Fortinet Developer Network is required to access the free tool. No license key is required to use the tool."
This indicates that you need to login to the Fortinet portal to find the latest tool and possibly documentation, the above links refer to 6.0.0, however, FortiClient is currently at 7.2.x.

We suggest that you configure FortiClient as required, based on the vendors guidelines, and test it using Custom Software.

If for some reason it fails using Custom Software, but works with local tests, please provide us access to the files you created, and we will test this and help with adjusting any parameters supplied to the installer through Custom Software.

Note that the files you share with us most likely will contain some sort of credentials and license information. We will naturally delete any sensitive files after testing and documenting our findings.

You can find the latest installer here:
https://www.fortinet.com/support/product-downloads#vpn

A simple Custom Software configuration should look like this:

• Enter a title e.g. "FortiClientVPN"

• Select the installer: FortiClientVPN-7.0.5.0238.msi

• Enter the silent Argument: /qn

• Enter the never restart option Argument: /norestart

And then click "Save".

The dialogue will now upload the files to the VulnDetect back-end.

After saving the Job, you can now select to deploy it to groups or hosts.
Remember to inspect the host or group, if you want the job to run right away, else it'll apply after the next scheduled inspection.

TightVNC can be upgraded using the Custom Software feature in VulnDetect - Corporate:
https://corporate.vulndetect.com/#/deployment/custom-create-job

Download the latest installers from the official website:
https://www.tightvnc.com/download.html

The parameters used in this guide are present in TightVNC's official documentation:
https://www.tightvnc.com/doc/win/TightVNC_2.7_for_Windows_Installing_from_MSI_Packages.pdf

To install TightVNC with its default settings use /quiet /norestart, this will install (or upgrade) both Viewer and Server.

If you would like to install a specific component of TightVNC, use the standard MSI property
named ADDLOCAL. The following three commands install only the server part, only the client part
and both parts, correspondingly:

• msiexec /i tightvnc-2.8.63-gpl-setup-64bit.msi /quiet /norestart ADDLOCAL=Server
• msiexec /i tightvnc-2.8.63-gpl-setup-64bit.msi /quiet /norestart ADDLOCAL=Viewer
• msiexec /i tightvnc-2.8.63-gpl-setup-64bit.msi /quiet /norestart ADDLOCAL="Server,Viewer"

Note that running the installer with e.g., ADDLOCAL=Server, on a system with both Viewer and Server, will remove the Viewer.

TightVNC with the Server component only.
