Cause
This security update prevents the generation of XSL-FO from headers and footers, so the resultant output is missing these sections.
1. If you are on a version of XML Publisher lower than 5.6.2, use the following workaround, until you are able to upgrade:
Open the template in Notepad and manually change: \headerr to \header
\footerr to \footer
