What to do

  1. Check whether your systems run affected IBM, SignalWire FreeSwitch, OpenSSH or GPUStack versions

The Brief

  • The U.S. CISA added flaws in IBM, SignalWire FreeSwitch, OpenSSH and GPUStack to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
  • The catalog lists vulnerabilities that sources describe as exploited, so the flaws are already being used in attacks.

Why it matters

Developers and operators running any of these four products may be exposed to flaws that attackers are already exploiting, so they should check whether they run affected versions.
