The SVM January 2026 update is live now.

SVM cloud version 260101 is live now. This new version of the cloud edition is compatible with the latest version of the Patch Publisher v 7.30.2191.

 The update includes important feature enhancements as mentioned below –

Patch Publisher Enhancements -

Streamlined Patch Publisher & AdminStudio Integration

This release enables tighter automation between Patch Publisher and AdminStudio. Patches published through Patch Publisher can now be auto‑assigned to a default AdminStudio workflow (Import + Customization) and automatically marked as Subscribed. Additionally, custom packages placed in a designated shared directory can be imported on a schedule. With AdminStudio REST API access configured, Patch Publisher—through automation or the publishing wizard—can seamlessly push custom packages into AdminStudio for repackaging and distribution with minimal manual effort.

Software Vulnerability Manager Enhancements

Expanded Intune Deployment Support for SVM Cloud

SVM Cloud now supports Intune publishing/deployments for both MSI and EXE-based Vendor Patch Module (VPM) packages. Previously restricted to MSI patches, this enhancement significantly broadens application coverage and offers greater flexibility in modern endpoint patch management.

Network Appliance Groups Now Available in the New SVM UI

Feature parity with the legacy UI is improved as the new SVM UI now supports the creation of Target Groups within Network Appliance Groups. These groups can be scanned directly using a Network Appliance Agent, simplifying asset segmentation and scanning workflows within the updated interface.

New IP-Based User Access Restrictions

Under User Management > Create New User, two new options—Restrict On IP Range and Restrict On IP Network—allow administrators to define the specific IP ranges or networks a user can access. These controls ensure users can only view or manage assets within authorized network boundaries, enhancing overall security and compliance.

Enhanced Visibility & Warnings for Digitally Signed Packages

Improvements across both Patch Publisher and the SVM User Interface now offer clearer identification and security guidance regarding digitally signed Vendor Patch Module (VPM) packages. In Patch Publisher, you can filter items using a new Digitally Signed option in Configure View, see a dedicated Digitally Signed property in the Patch Information dialog, and receive a security warning when subscribing to unsigned packages. Similarly, in the SVM UI, a new warning popup appears during the Create Update Package workflow if the selected package is not digitally signed, alerting administrators to potential security risks before they proceed.
