    CVE-2023-43505, CVE-2023-46601: Use an application server like Citrix which builds an additional layer of access control around COMOS. The file share with the documents folder and the database should be only accessible by the application server. You can find further recommendations in the COMOS manual “Securityrelevant configuration” in COMOS documentation ( https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/document/109823629/)
