In this article, we will show you what’s new in Magento 2.2.3 and which features you should try after updating your websites. This is what’s new in Magento 2.2.3.
Important: Don’t forget to create a complete Magento backup before starting the update.
In this release includes 35 enhancements to product security, a change to the Magento Admin to support recent USPS shipping changes, and a copyright update. And thanks to our community members, it also includes enhancements to ACL control for cache management through Magento Admin.
Security Enhancements
Magento 2.2.3 includes multiple security enhancements. Although this release includes these enhancements, no confirmed attacks related to these issues have occurred to date. However, certain vulnerabilities can potentially be exploited to access customer information or take over administrator sessions, so we recommend that you upgrade your Magento software to the latest version as soon as possible.
Support USPS Shipping
On February 23, 2018, USPS removed APIs that support the creation of shipping labels without postage. In response, we’ve removed this functionality from the Magento Admin. Consequently, you cannot create and print shipping labels that do not have postage applied. If you require USPS postage printing capabilities, please visit Magento Shipping to learn more, and explore various shipping extensions on Magento Marketplace.
Improve Cache Management
In this release introduces finer permissions for cache management tasks such as flushing cache storage, flushing the Magento cache, and refreshing cache types.
Update Copyright
In this release updated copyright to 2018.
That’s a wrap for today. To know even more about the new release and features, feel free to read the official Magento 2.2.3 release notes here.
