If it is not enabled on Ubuntu 26.04, a message indicating that reboot is blocked will appear. The message also states that the installation is defective; however, this is incorrect. The installation completes successfully, but Anti-Malware (AM) will not function until the Audit subsystem is enabled. | | Versions 1.28.15, 1.28.14, 1.28.12, 1.281.11 | Customers with On-Premises solutions who are getting updates by setting the deployment policy to "Latest" will need to load the new versions manually to the Security Management Server. For more information see [sk184328](https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk184328). There is a known issue with On-Premises upgrade even after the new version was loaded to the Security Management Server. To resolve this issue, see [sk184818](https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk184818). | | Version 1.26.8 | Starting in Endpoint Security Client for Linux Version 1.26.x, on-Premises Endpoint Management Server no longer Auto-Updates Security Clients with "Latest" Policy.

On-premises customers upgrading from version 1.22.12 to 1.24.02 should follow the steps mentioned in sk183323. | | Version 1.22.18 | Customers upgrading from version 1.20.12 to 1.22.18 via Endpoint Security software deployment, and not setting their version to 'latest', should follow the steps mentioned in [sk183311](https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk183311). On-premises customers upgrading from version 1.22.12 to 1.22.18 should follow the steps mentioned in [sk183323](https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk183323). | | Version 1.22.15 | Customers upgrading from version 1.20.12 to 1.22.15 via Endpoint Security software deployment, and not setting their version to 'latest', should follow the steps mentioned in [sk183311](https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk183311). On-premises customers upgrading from version 1.22.12 to 1.22.15 should follow the steps mentioned in [sk183323](https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk183323). | | Version 1.22.12 | If you want to upgrade the Endpoint Security Client for Linux from version 1.20.8 to 1.22.12 via Endpoint Security software deployment, and not set the version to 'latest', follow the steps mentioned in [sk183311](https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk183311). If you have On-premises Security Management Server and if you want to upgrade from version 1.20.8 to 1.22.12, follow the steps mentioned in [sk183323](https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk183323). | | Version 1.20 | For customers upgrading from a distribution-specific package (not the generic one): If your current version is 1.18.12 or lower, you should update to the latest distribution-specific package. | | Version 1.18.16 | Installation on Alma Linux 9.3 may require a pre-requisite on certain occasions (refer to [sk182765](https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk182765) for resolution). Customers who are upgrading from a distribution-specific package (and not from the generic one) should update to a distribution-specific package (this limitation will be removed in the next version), see table below for download links. On-premises customers who want to upgrade to 1.18.16, need to make sure that their server version is upgraded to R81.20 with Jumbo Hotfix 76 is installed.
