Released on May 12, 2025, version 4.0.4-SR1 introduces enhanced security protocols and scalability improvements for distributed cloud deployments.

As a core component in Cisco Webex Calling architectures, CCRS 4.0.4-SR1 enables:

  • Secure synchronization of voicemail/IVR assets across hybrid clouds
  • TLS 1.3 encryption for media replication workflows
  • Support for multi-tenancy configurations with 10,000+ endpoint scalability

Technical Enhancements & Security Updates

  1. ​Zero-Day Vulnerability Mitigation​

    • Resolved CVE-2025-2287 (XML External Entity Processing flaw) via strict input validation
    • Implemented FIPS 140-3 compliant SHA-384 hashing for repository integrity checks
  2. ​Performance Optimization​

    • 35% faster media file indexing through parallel metadata processing
    • Adaptive bandwidth throttling for WAN optimization (1-40 Gbps auto-detection)
  3. ​Protocol Stack Modernization​

    • Added WebRTC 1.3 support for browser-based media retrieval
    • SIPREC recording session compatibility with RFC 8868 standards
