This release contains a security fix, so all customers using Monetra should upgrade to this version as soon as possible.  Release notes: Effective 12/9/2020 Monetra 8.16.0 has been released to the public and is a feature enhancement/security/maintenance release. This release is highly recommended for all users of Monetra and should be considered the most modern and stable release available. **Changelog** Database Schema: v4.13 (compatible with v4.0) Security: - [High] OpenSSL has been updated to 1.1.1i. This release addresses a single high priority security vulnerability that could lead to a Denial of Service attack. For more information please see: [https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv/20201208.txt](https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv/20201208.txt) - [Low] c-ares has been updated to 1.17.1. This release addresses a few low priority vulnerabilities that are not expected to be possible to trigger in the way Monetra uses this library. For more information see: [https://c-ares.haxx.se/changelog.html](https://c-ares.haxx.se/changelog.html) Certifications: - Global Payments has been recertified. The specification in use has changed from their TEXT processing specification to ISO8583. This certification includes the latest industry mandates such as Card on File and Online Return Authorizations. The certification includes support for the Ingenico TETRA line of devices. - Global Payments Big Batch upload specification has been recertified to ensure compliance with the latest industry requirements. Features: - In the Monetra logs, the `[CONNID XXX]` and `[TRANSID XXX]` entries are now guaranteed to be unique across both restarts of Monetra as well as across different machines. They are displayed as up to a 16 character hex value. In `main.conf` there is a new `node_id` configuration value that should be set to a unique value per node. The acceptable range is `0-15`. Fixes: - The `profile_id` wasn't being saved during an `edituser` request. Integration Changes: - Global Payments no longer supports dialup communication (dial backup) due to switching to the ISO8583 specification where that is not possible. ThirdParty Library Updates: - SQLite updated to 3.34.0 - OpenSSL updated to 1.1.1i - C-ares updated to 1.17.1 Topics: [Monetra Updates](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/monetra-updates) [![Find out About Customer Communications](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/170069/4d89e749-04b9-48e6-9ff2-d0816812bc27.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/170069/4d89e749-04b9-48e6-9ff2-d0816812bc27) ### Subscribe Here! #### Advisories by Topic - [SpeedLine Releases (58)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/speedline-releases) - [Monetra Updates (37)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/monetra-updates) - [PCI (26)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/pci) - [SpeedWeb (14)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/speedweb) - [SpeedDine (11)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/speeddine) - [General Customer Info (10)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/general-customer-info) - [Windows (9)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/windows) - [Pay@ the Door (6)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/pay-the-door) - [Security (6)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/security) - [SpeedLine Pay (6)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/speedline-pay) - [Support Service (6)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/support-service) - [Worldpay (5)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/worldpay) - [Emergencies (4)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/emergencies) - [Mobile Payments (4)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/mobile-payments) - [New SpeedLine Product (4)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/new-speedline-product) - [Mobile Ordering (3)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/mobile-ordering) - [Online Ordering (3)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/online-ordering) - [Third-Party Integrations (3)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/third-party-integrations) - [Credit Cards (2)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/credit-cards) - [Gift Cards (2)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/gift-cards) - [POS Reports (2)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/pos-reports) - [Upgrade (2)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/upgrade) - [accessibility (2)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/accessibility) - [COVID-19 (1)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/covid-19) - [Contactless Delivery (1)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/contactless-delivery) - [Food Delivery (1)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/food-delivery) - [Payment Security (1)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/payment-security) - [Restaurant Security and PCI (1)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/restaurant-security-and-pci) - [SpeedLine News (1)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/speedline-news) - [SpeedLine POS (1)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/speedline-pos) - [Third-Party Ordering (1)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/third-party-ordering) - [analytics (1)](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/topic/analytics) [see all](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/supportadvisories/monetra-8.16.0-available-security-fix#) #### Recent Advisories ### For Customers ### Contact General Inquiries: 1-888-400-9185 [info@speedlinesolutions.com](mailto:info@speedlinesolutions.com) Support: 1-888-923-9185 [support@speedlinesolutions.com](mailto:support@speedlinesolutions.com) ### Resources ### About ---   Copyright ©2026 by SpeedLine Solutions Inc.  |  [Terms Of Use](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/terms)  |  [Privacy Statement](https://www.speedlinesolutions.com/privacy)   ![](https://px.ads.linkedin.com/collect/?pid=2676561&fmt=gif)
