NewViews servers have never been vulnerable to third party connection probes, but some of these probes resulted in the server shutting down and restarting. This behaviour was corrected in service pack 7 (2.34.7.20210223) but as a side-effect, some legitimate connections from NewViews workstations were rejected in certain rare circumstances.

In these cases, users attempting to open a database by double-clicking on a workstation login row experienced a pause, often accompanied by an hourglass icon and then nothing. The connection was simply ignored. Service pack 8 fixes this problem.
