Just as the recent patch release Magento SUPEE 11346, Magento keeps on releasing security patches for protection against vulnerabilities and potential attacks.
Magento store owners find it difficult to keep the track of which patches are already installed in their store. Also, it’s required to double check Magento patches are installed successfully. There are two methods to get the list of installed Magento patches.
- Using magereport.com
- Via applied.patches.list file
Both methods are listed below to select to check which Magento patches are installed in your website.
magereport.com is a great resource that provides the ability to run the test on Magento websites for vulnerabilities and gives an overview of which patches have been installed and the certainty of proper installation.
Get Installed Magento Patches using Applied.patches.list File
There are commands which can give the details about the SUPEE patches installed in your store. All patches that were installed without any errors are logged into app/etc/applied.patches.list file. Open this file in any text editor to find out all installed patches and files that were customized in the process.
Commands to List Installed Magento Patches
- To get the list of security patches installed
$ grep -F '|' app/etc/applied.patches.list|cut -f 2 -d'|'2. To get the list of security patches installed along with its dates of installation:
$ grep -F '|' app/etc/applied.patches.list|cut -f 2,1 -d'|'Run the above commands and you’ll get the required information. This method only works if you have patched Magento using SSH.
You may also try this module to see a list of all applied Magento patches from the Magento admin panel!
With the Magento 1 end of life, it is strongly recommended to migrate to the latest Magento 2.4.8 rather than installing Magento SUPEE patches.
