Red Hat Fuse enables integration experts, application developers, and business users to collaborate and independently develop connected solutions. Fuse is part of an agile integration solution. Its distributed approach allows teams to deploy integrated services where required. The API-centric, container-based architecture decouples services so they can be created, extended, and deployed independently. This release of Red Hat Fuse 7.2 serves as a replacement for Red Hat Fuse 7.1, and includes bug fixes and enhancements, which are documented in the Release Notes document linked to in the References. Issues addressed include code execution, denial of service, deserialization, and traversal vulnerabilities.
