What to do

  • The recommended resolution is to upgrade to a remediated VCO software version at your earliest convenience. These vulnerabilities have been fixed in the following releases: - VCO 5.2.3.16 and later in the 5.2.3 train - VCO 6.4.2.8 and later in the 6.4.2 train Releases in other release trains that fix this will be added over time. For VCOs not on a supported release train, customers can contact TAC to discuss possible upgrade options.CNA solution statement
  • Until fixed software is deployed, operators should apply defense-in-depth controls appropriate for their environment: - Restrict access to the VCO web interface to trusted administrative networks. - Monitor the VCO for accesses from known malicious source IPs. - Monitor for unexpected outbound network activity from the VCO host. - Consider blocking outbound ports not needed for normal activities. - Monitor for backdoor daemons and webshells. - Review recent administrator activity for unexpected changes.CNA workaround statement
  • Apply 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.CISA KEV required action
