Senserva AI Opinion for CVE-2020-29574

Sophos CyberoamOS appliances carry a WebAdmin SQL injection that unauthenticated remote attackers can use to execute arbitrary SQL statements, and CISA confirmed real-world exploitation in February 2025. Cyberoam hardware is aging out of many networks, which is precisely where this flaw lives on. An unauthenticated Critical bug on a forgotten perimeter box is a breach waiting to be noticed.

Do this: Identify any remaining CyberoamOS appliances, patch them if updates exist, and schedule replacement of unsupported units.
