Today I got this notification in Magento.

New Patch for PayPal Instant Payment Notification (IPN) Changes.
Upgrade to 1.9.3.3 or SUPEE-8167 by June 30, 2017 to Avoid Service
Disruptions – 6/13/2017
As of June 30, 2017, PayPal Instant Payment
Notifications will no longer allow you to use HTTP to post messages
back to PayPal for verification. To comply with these changes, all
merchants using PayPal must upgrade to Community Edition 1.9.3.3 or
apply the SUPEE-8167 patch. Updates must be in place by June 30, 2017
to avoid any service disruptions. The patch is available on the
Community Edition Download Page
(https://magento.com/tech-resources/download) and more information is
available from PayPal at
https://www.paypal-knowledge.com/infocenter/index?page=content&widgetview=true&id=FAQ1916&viewlocale=en_US

The link https://magento.com/tech-resources/download does not provide me with a link to download Magento 1.9.3.3. I'm also unable to find a download link for or a guide to applying patch SUPEE-8167.

How can I avoid service disruptions caused by the PayPal Instant Payment Notification (IPN) Changes?

Best Answer

You need to click the release archive tab at https://magento.com/tech-resources/download

Scroll down to the bottom of the page for the CE 1.x patches and CE 1.9.3.3 source code downloads.

Apply the patches for CE 1.x as per the Magento documentation here http://devdocs.magento.com/guides/m1x/other/ht_install-patches.html
