Multi-Setup Package Support in Vendor Patch Module (VPM)

The Vendor Patch Module (VPM) now supports publishing and deploying multiple setup files within a single package to the Intune portal, simplifying multi-setup application delivery. This enhancement resolves deployment readiness issues, enables successful installations, and extends support across SVM and Patch Publisher. These setup files are now visible in the Patch Information dialog box, giving improved visibility and control over deployments.

Enhanced Security Check for Unsigned VPM Package Deployment

In Patch Publisher, a new security warning pop-up has been introduced for VPM patches when Create Update Package for unsigned applications. Users must confirm their intent before proceeding. Digitally signed packages are not affected and continue through the standard deployment process without any prompt.

Expanded Package Support in Vendor Patch Module (VPM)

The Vendor Patch Module (VPM) has been significantly enhanced with the addition of approximately 1500 new packages, increasing the total package coverage from 8800 to 10300 approximately. This expansion provides broader application support within both the SVM UI and Patch Publisher, enabling users to benefit from a more comprehensive and diverse patching library while continuing to leverage the same streamlined automation and deployment workflows. In future, more packages will be added to further enrich the VPM coverage.

note

To leverage the expanded VPM Library, the new version of Patch Publisher (v7.27.1964) is required.

New SVM Connection Status Indicators in Patch Publisher

Previously, when opening Patch Publisher, there was no clear visual indication of whether the SVM connection exists or not. With the introduction of connection status icons, users now have clear visibility into the current state of the SVM connection at a glance.

  • Green Icon—Displayed when the SVM connection is active.

  • Red Icon—Displayed when the SVM connection is inactive or not yet configured. This enhancement improves the overall user experience during SVM configuration, reduces confusion, and improves transparency.

Migration from ADAL to MSAL for Microsoft Intune Integration

The SVM Patch Publisher have migrated from Azure Active Directory Authentication Library (ADAL) to Microsoft Authentication Library (MSAL). The update enhances security, ensures compliance with Microsoft’s latest standards, and supports advanced authentication scenarios through modern identity frameworks.
