Using FNMS with a recent version of IBM COGNOS

Hi All,

Working on a custom project, I recently deployed the latest version 11.1.7-2304260612 of 'Flexera Analytics' (aka: IBM Cognos) that is provided with the FNMS 2023 R2 release.

The Qualys Enterprise Security Suite used in the customer enviroment reported dozens of security vulnerabilities (see below) in the IBM Cognos 11.1.7-2304260612 version immediately. The IT Department requested that this version of COGNOS is uninstalled immediately.

Version 11.1.7 of IBM Cognos has been released in the year 2020. Since June 2023, release 12.0.0 of Cognos is available.

Did anybody else run into similar problems? Has anybody tested using a more recent version of COGNOS with FNMS?

Obviously, it would help if Flexera could qualify release 12.0.0 of COGNOS for FNMS 2023 R2, or at least for the upcoming FNMS 2024 R1 release.
