Statement on the security gap in the Java library Log4j
As the media have already reported, there is currently a critical security gap in the Java library Log4j. According to the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) in Germany, this gap leads to a critical threat situation for applications based on it.
We have intensively tested our products for the use of Log4j.
So far, Log4j is known to be used for the WAGO Smart Script labelling software from version 4.2. The security gap will be closed with Smart Script version 4.8.1.4, which is already available.
Download version 4.8.1.4: An advisory is also in preparation.
With this latest software update you will automatically receive all update information for the Smart Script Marking Software.
All other WAGO products are not affected by the security vulnerability in Log4j, as this library or technology is not used.
Should new findings emerge in the course of the investigations, we will inform you shortly.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact our support team (support.de@wago.com).
