  • Mitigation

    * Disable I/O-Check service * Restrict network access to the device. * Do not directly connect the device to the internet.

  • Fixed

    The I/O-Check service protocol is only needed during installation and commissioning, not during normal operations. It is highly recommended to disable the I/O-Check service after commissioning. This is the easiest and securest way to protect your device from the listed vulnerabilities. Regardless to the action described above, the vulnerability has been fixed in FW11, released in December 2017.
