Take stock

  • Do you run any of these? FXC AE1021, AE1021PE, QNAP VioStor NVR. They are being exploited in the wild (CISA KEV). Patch or mitigate if you do; CISA’s federal deadline is 2024-01-11.
  • npm: 1 critical advisory (bsock). Check with npm audit (or: npm ls <package>).
  • Maven: 1 critical advisory (org.apache.iotdb:iotdb-parent). Check with mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=<groupId>:<artifactId>.
  • None of it touches your stack? Then there is nothing to do today. That is a result, not a failure to read carefully.
