Barracuda Has A Serious Email Security Gateway Appliance (ESG) Vulnerability…. Time To Patch Away

Barracuda’s Email Security Gateway Appliance has a vulnerability that is so serious, that even the CISA is wanting Federal Agencies to patch it right away. That’s because there are reports that this vulnerability has been exploited. Which is of course a bad thing.

Here’s what Joe Saunders, CEO, RunSafe Security had to say on this:

“As attackers gain persistent access and start to move laterally, they likely will need a memory-based exploit to complete the attack. The time is now for industry to stop chasing patches and start deploying exploit prevention even when a patch is not available.”

The bottom line is that those with Barracuda ESG’s need to patch them ASAP to keep the bad guys out. Seeing as this is a clear and present danger, not doing that is asking for trouble.
