CERT-In flags critical vulnerabilities in Trend Micro's Apex One
CERT-In has flagged serious security issues in Trend Micro's Apex One and related products, warning IT teams about the risk of remote hacks.
The advisory, issued February 27, highlights how these flaws could let attackers break in and take control if systems aren't patched.
Apex One is security software used by companies
Apex One is security software used by companies to block malware and manage threats across Windows and macOS devices.
The newly discovered bugs could let hackers run code remotely through the Management Console—basically giving them a way inside company networks.
Some vulnerabilities even scored a worrying 9.8 out of 10 for severity.
Trend Micro has rolled out a critical patch
Trend Micro has rolled out a critical patch (Build 14136) for on-premises users, while cloud-based versions got automatic fixes.
CERT-In urges admins to update fast, and Trend Micro recommends locking down console access to stay protected.
This isn't the first time Apex One has had issues—so keeping up with patches really matters if you want your data safe.
