NEOxl 80 Firmware Version 3.00 Release Announcement

NEOxl 80 3.00 Resolved Issues


Description Severity
SNMPv1 does not handle multiple community names. Moderate
SOLUTION: Made trap destinations with unique name and trap tag to prevent wrong community name
from first added entry.
Potential Security Vulnerability for DHCP: CVE-2021-25217. Moderate
SOLUTION: DHCP updated from 4.1-ESV-R15-P1 to 4.1-ESV-R16-P1 to fix CVE-2021-25217.
Update NTP/SNTP to version ntp-4.2.8p15. Moderate
SOLUTION: ntp updated to ntp-4.2.8p15 to solve several security issues and add a lot of enhancements
Medium destination full error. Moderate
SOLUTION: Fixed by syncing drive status before move to/from drive happens. This sync is done in
context of move command, so timeouts are >16min anyway.
lighttpd 1.4.58 core dumped. Moderate
SOLUTION: Updated lighttpd to 1.4.60 and re-enabled SessionTickets but disabled HTTP2 for now since
lighttpd seems not to be stable with it.
OCP Error 205 ContentResendError. Moderate
SOLUTION: Added workaround if error ContentResendError occurs to reload the page and regenerate
session.
