Mitigating Factors

WorkAround-1: Cloud Software Group strongly recommends that network traffic to the appliance’s management interface be separated, either physically or logically, from normal network traffic. In addition, we recommend users do not expose the management interface to the internet. Doing so significantly reduces the risk of exploitation of this issue.

WorkAround-2: In addition to separating the appliance’s management interface from network traffic,  Cloud Software Group has created a script that can be run on the vulnerable appliance to reduce the risk of exploitation for customers who may not be able to install relevant updated versions. Customers may reach out to Support for further guidance or information on this workaround.
