Hot Take:

Oh Cisco, you’ve done it again! This time, a security vulnerability in your Meraki products has us shaking in our boots. Who knew that enabling a VPN could come with a side of drama? It’s like ordering a salad and finding a spider in it. You just want some security, not an eight-legged surprise. But fear not, dear users, Cisco’s offering a fix faster than you can say “SSL VPN.” Time to update those firmware versions and pray your devices don’t turn into paperweights!

Key Points:

  • Vulnerability affects Cisco Meraki MX and Z Series devices running certain firmware versions.
  • Only devices with Cisco AnyConnect VPN enabled are impacted.
  • Cisco offers free updates to patch the vulnerability, but only if you have the right license.
  • MX400 and MX600 won’t be receiving any love due to their impending EOL status.
  • Users must migrate to specified fixed releases to avoid the security bug.
