Recommended System Patches

The System Patches package is bundled with recommended patches for specific versions of pfSense software. The list of Recommended Patches is below the custom system patches area on System > Patches. The list of recommended patches is different for each version and typically includes security patches and important bug fixes. The list only displays patches relevant to the current version of pfSense software running on the device.

Note

Not every release has recommended patches! In most cases a brand-new release does not have any entries in the recommended patches list unless a significant issue was discovered after the release was published.

The list of recommended patches includes a brief description of the patch and what it fixes or changes. There are typically links to relevant Redmine issues, Security Advisories, or similar sources. There may also be special notes or instructions to follow for patch entries.
