What to do

Three steps, in this order

Step 1

Apply the vendor fix; command injection on an exposed device is used within days of disclosure.

Step 2

Restrict the management interface to a trusted network until the fix is in.

Step 3

Review the device's logs and configuration for changes you did not make.

CISA's required actionApply mitigations in accordance with vendor instructions, ensuring compliance with CISA’s BOD 26-04 Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk (see URL in Notes) guidance and CISA’s “Forensics Triage Requirements” (see URL in Notes). Follow applicable BOD 26-04 guidance for cloud services or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable. Stakeholders are responsible for evaluating each asset's internet exposure and ensuring adherence to BOD 26-04 patching guidelines.
