BD is aware of and is currently monitoring a third-party application issue within ESET Security’s products, where their kernel validates a previously expired certificate (expired February 7, 2020). Please note that this is not a security vulnerability and this issue cannot be exploited by an unauthorized user. Additionally, BD has not received any reports of this third-party application issue impacting BD products.
As a result of this application issue, the impacted versions of ESET Security products fail to load modules such as firewalls, Host Intrusion Prevention System (HIPS), Updated, Device Control, Web and Email protection, causing these modules to not function. This third-party security issue, which ESET corrected with their latest security update, is not specific to BD or our products.
BD utilizes the following three ESET Security products:
- ESET Endpoint Antivirus/ESET Endpoint Security 5
- ESET Endpoint Antivirus/ESET Endpoint Security 6.5.2000+
- ESET File Security for Windows 6.5.12000+
For a full list of impacted ESET Security Products please see ESET’s advisory.
BD is currently working to test and validate the security update, released by ESET, for BD products that use the affected third-party products. Please see the Product Security Patching website for all approved product security patching notifications. Additionally, we recommend the following compensating controls for customers using BD products that utilize the impacted ESET products:
- Ensure data has been backed up and stored according to your individual processes and disaster recovery procedures
