The SUPEE-8788 patch addresses these security issues in earlier Magento versions. Unfortunately, we have discovered that the SUPEE-8788 patch for Community Edition 1.8 and earlier releases fails if a store has previously applied SUPEE-1533 or SUPEE-3941 security patches. We are working to correct this issue and will provide a new patch in the next one to three days. Until then, we are removing these versions of the SUPEE-8788 patch from distribution.

Magento patches are files with .sh extension. Unlike usual patches, they have an installation scenario in them, which ensures atomicity of installation and deinstallation processes.

The scenario also logs installation and deinstallation actions into app/etc/applied.patches.list file.

To install any patch, first things first, you should upload the patch file into the root category of the chosen Magento shop and run this command (just replace the example patch name with the name of the patch you are installing right now).

sh PATCH_SUPEE-8788.sh

Different patches can cause bugs and issues, depending on the number of corrections the patch contains. For example, the first uncorrected version of SUPEE-8788 wasn’t working properly with SUPEE-1533.

Here’s what we recommend to do for installing the patch and avoiding any possible or known issues afterward:

  • Always install the patch on the dev environment first. Otherwise, your store may be affected with issues and bugs, and you can lose sales and money because of this.
  • Backup the site and the databases for dev and live environments, even if you’re sure everything will be fine.
  • In case you installed the first (broken) version of SUPEE-8788, uninstall it, uninstall SUPEE-1533 as well, install SUPEE-3941 (if it hasn’t been applied yet), and finally install SUPEE-8788 v2.
  • Disable compilation before installation and clear Magento cache before and after installation.
  • Store the patch files on your server. The thing is, you can’t uninstall the patches without their initial files.
  • Make sure to test your Magento shop with the patches installed to make sure all the features are working properly.
