1 Release Notes

DSpace 9.1 provides bug fixes, accessibility & performance improvements to the 9.x platform. No new features are provided. As such this release should be an easier upgrade for sites already running 9.x.

9.1 Security Fixes

• Fix for CVE-2025-53621 (moderate severity). XML External Entity (XXE) injection possible in import via Simple Archive Format (SAF) or import from external sources. See security advisory or mailing list “security notice” for details.
• Fix for CVE-2025-53622(moderate severity). Path traversal vulnerability in Simple Archive Format (SAF) package import via “contents” file. See security advisory or mailing list “security notice” for details.
• This release also many dependency updates in order to keep all DSpace sites secure. Some of these updates patch vulnerabilities that have been reported by those dependencies. But no exploits of these vulnerabilities have been confirmed in DSpace.

9.1 Major Bug Fixes and Improvements

9.0 Release Notes

DSpace 9.0 is a major release of the DSpace platform.  It provides new features and improvements, along with bug fixes.  You should be aware that all major releases may provide some "breaking changes" (major changes that may impact your local customizations).

...

• Fix possible "Zip Slip" in SWORDv2 ingest process. This potential issue was found via an automated code scan and no exploit has been confirmed. See #10725
• This release also includes many dependency updates in order to keep all DSpace sites secure. Some of these updates patch vulnerabilities that have been reported by those dependencies. But no exploits of these vulnerabilities has have been confirmed in DSpace.

...

• OpenAlex integration. DSpace now supports importing content (on via MyDSpace) from OpenAlex.org.  The DSpace Publication Claim feature also now supports importing a Publications related to a a Researcher Profiles, provided that the profile has an OpenAlex ID.  Additional screenshots & examples at #10433 (Donated by 4Scienceby 4Science and University of Cambridge with additional funding from the Vietsch Foundation)
• Support for tracking usage statistics via Matomo (a Google Analytics alternative). DSpace can now integrate with Matomo Analytics, in order to track usage statistics, search statistics and downloads. This integration requires an existing Matomo account or instance.  See screenshots at #10435 (Donated by 4Science with additional funding from University of Maryland )
• ORCID Login flow is improved. Users logging in via ORCID can now merge their ORCID login with an existing DSpace login.  Users can also login via ORCID without sharing their email from their ORCID account to DSpace.  See #9849 for more details (Donated by 4Science and Lyrasis with additional funding from ORCID's Global Participation Fund)
• Support for SAML authentication. DSpace now includes a SAML Authentication Plugin, which can be configured to allow your DSpace site to use an external SAML IdP. See also #9470 and #9438 for more details (Donated by DSpaceDirect)
• Request a Copy now supports sending a secure download link for larger files.  Files under a (configurable) size threshold are still attached in requests.  But, larger files now send a secure (auto-expiring) link to allow the requester to download the file.  See also #3984 (Donated by The Library Code).  But, larger files now send a secure (auto-expiring) link to allow the requester to download the file.  See also #3984 (Built by The Library Code, funded by Technische Universität Berlin)
• ALTCHA captcha protection is now supported.  At this time, ALTCHA is only used by the (updated) Request a Copy feature.  It may be extended to other features in the future.  See CAPTCHA Verification. (Donated by The Library Code)
• Health page now includes an "SEO" validation check. A basic check of your DSpace site's Search Engine Optimization is now available on your Health page (/health) in the Admin sidebar.  This SEO report checks that your sitemap is visible, your robots.txt is visible and that you have SSR (Server Side Rendering) enabled. #10485 (Donated by AtmireALTCHA captcha protection is now supported.  At this time, ALTCHA is only used by the (updated) Request a Copy feature.  It may be extended to other features in the future.  See CAPTCHA Verification. (Donated by The Library Code)
• Embargo release dates for embargoed files are now displayed on the Item page. The user interface includes a new "showAccessStatuses" configuration for bitstreams on the Item page.   When  When enabled, any all embargoed files will show display a "badge" next to the file name badge (on the Item page. This badge will display ) which contains the date the embargo endsexpires. Screenshots can be found in the comments of of #3882 (Donated by nibou230)PDF Citation Cover Page has been enhanced to use a Thymeleaf HTML template.  This provides more control over the look and feel of these cover pages: #9844 (Donated by The Library Codeby Université Laval)
• Support for Geospatial maps, including browsing and searching. If any Items/Entities include geospatial data in the "dcterms.spatial" metadata field (or similar), then new "geospatialMapViewer" settings now provide ways to interact with this data via maps. This includes options to display a map of the location on the Item page, view search results on a map, or browse geospatial data via a map. See #3540 (Donated by The Library Code)
• The default tab on Community/Collection pages is now configurable. By default it will still be the "Search" tab, but it can be modified using the new "defaultBrowseTab" setting under the "community" or "collection" configurations in your config.*.yml. See also #3164 (Donated by Abel Gomezconfig.*.yml. See also #3164 (Donated by Abel Gomez)
• Accessibility Settings can be customized by users. Basic accessibility settings like Notification (popup) timeouts and ARIA Live Region timeouts can now be customized by each user of your site via the "Accessibility Settings" link in the footer.  This allows users more control over how long confirmation and error messages are displayed. (Donated by Atmire)
• The "Edit Item → Metadata" tab now supports a dropdown for "dspace.entity.type" field. In previous versions, this field was free-text, but now only valid Entity types can be selected.  Metadata field code was also refactored on this page. See #3722 (Donated by Atmire)
• Creative Commons license display now uses the backend configuration. The existing "cc.license.name" and "cc.license.url" configurations on the backend are now used by the frontend to determine which metadata field(s) to use for display of the CC license on the Item page. See #3165 (Donated by Abel Gomez)
• Health page now includes an "SEO" check. A basic check of your DSpace site's Search Engine Optimization is now available on your Health page (/health) in the Admin sidebar.  This SEO report checks that your sitemap is visible, your robots.txt is visible and that you have SSR (Server Side Rendering) enabled. #10485 (Donated by Atmire)
• Accessibility Settings are customizable by users. Basic accessibility settings like Notification (popup) timeouts and ARIA Live Region timeouts can now be customized by each user of your site via the "Accessibility Settings" link in the footer.  This allows users more control over how long confirmation and error messages are displayed. (Donated by Atmire)
• CSV Export from Admin Report.  The Administrator Reports (Beta feature) now supports CSV export.  After running a report, next to the results is export button that allows you to export those results to a CSV.  See  #4071 (Donated by Université Laval)
• Bitstream Storage (assetstore) now supports Apache JClouds, supporting many cloud providers. See Configuring JCloudstore for Asset Storage documentation and #9915 (Donated by Atmire)
