        The URL you used is just fine.

        When I clicked on "Fetch", it was successful..

        On your system, pfSense can't go outside (== loading something from https://github.com/.... ), you should investigate that issue.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??

            I have this issue too but I'm not familiar with patching a pfSense. I added the system patch package. However, I need a little guidance on what to do with the link to the patch above and the respective fields.

            Thanks in advance for your assistance.

              I have another symptom but not sure if it is related to this patch.

              I created a new user, User1, and added the user to the ADMIN group.

              I login with User1 and it appears I can do some administration but when I try to add VLANs or edit new assignments, I end up at the WAN assignment page. However, when I use the admin account, it works as I would expect it to.

              I look forward to some guidance on how to apply this patch.

                To apply the patch you need the patch package - and the URL as shown above.
                The rest is a 3 click procedure.

                I guess it's worth applies the patch - at best it solves your issue - at worst you found another issue.

                      What I'd like to know is this: I'm on 2.4.4-RELEASE-p3 now. Why wasn't/isn't this issue already patched and included in the release I'm on?

                        Because it was only introduced in 2.4.4p3. It will be fixed in the next release.
