DEVENS, Mass. � Comrex has issue a warning for its customers: ��Dirty COW� Vulnerability: What Is It And Should You Worry?��Well, sort of.
�
The bad news: Dirty COW has been around since 2007 (although only recently discovered) and the vulnerability can enable hackers to access Linux systems.
�
The good news: �Comrex devices do not provide any user escalation capability at all, and so they are not vulnerable,� according to the company.
�
Even better news: �The kernel has already been fixed, and organizations are currently prepping security patches, so keep your firmware up to date.�
�
Nonetheless, Comrex reminds customers to keep cybersecurity in mind for all broadcast gear.
