Nuxeo Aspera Release Notes

Updated: March 18, 2026

What's New in Aspera for LTS 2023 (Version 2023.9.0)

This release includes a bug fix, vulnerability fixes and some technical enhancements.

Released Changes

Bug Fixes

Improved the link behavior for the Location field in the Aspera Transfer Document Edit view. Clicking the suggested document now opens it cleanly in a new browser tab without interrupting the edit session.

Enhanced user feedback when the IBM Aspera Client selection window is already open. Instead of failing silently, users now see a clear message: "Modal dialog already opened."

Security Improvements

Code Scanning and Dependency Security

  • Addressed multiple security vulnerabilities reported by GitHub Code Scanning in the nuxeo-aspera-connector, including a fix for an implicit narrowing conversion vulnerability.

  • Resolved a critical Prototype Pollution vulnerability in the handlebars dependency for nuxeo-aspera-web by upgrading to a secure version.

Functional Enhancements

Transfer Action Synchronization

The Aspera connector now fully supports pause, resume, and remove actions initiated from IBM Aspera Client Connect.

  • Dashboard statuses in Nuxeo remain in sync.
  • Delete is automatically disabled for in‑progress transfers to prevent inconsistent states.

Quality and Maintainability Improvements

Automated Code Coverage and SonarCloud

  • Added automated code coverage reporting and SonarCloud integration for both backend and frontend of the Aspera connector on the lts‑2025 branch, improving test visibility and code quality.

  • Extended code coverage support to the lts‑2023 branch for consistent quality metrics across supported versions.
