3. Security Issues Addressed
The following highly publicized security vulnerabilities have already been addressed in a previous release:
Name | Description |
---|---|
"ShellShock" | Updated bash version to fix this in release 4.2 |
"Poodle" | SSLv3 was disabled in release 5.0 |
Cross-Scripting | Cross-Scripting entries via the Web user Interface were restricted in release 5.1 |
CVE-2016-0734 "Clickjacking" | Resolved in the 6.2 release. |
"Beast” and “Logjam” | The "Beast” and “Logjam” vulnerabilities have been addressed in the 6.3 release. |
TLS 1.0 access | TLS 1.0 has been disabled so only newer versions are used. This was addressed in the 6.3 release. |
"Sweet 32 Birthday Attack" | Vulnerability Birthday attacks against TLS ciphers with 64bit block size vulnerability (Sweet32) resolved in the 7.0 release. |
TLS 1.1 access | TLS 1.1 has been disabled. TLS 1.2 is the minimum version used. This was addressed in the 7.6 release. |
CVE-2004-0583 | This vulnerability could allow a brute force ID/Password attack. This was addressed in the 7.8 release. |

California IoT Security Law; SB-327 | User must now configure unique administrator credential to access the card. This was addressed in the 7.8 release. |
4. Update Instructions
The Unity cards may be updated to this firmware version using the web-based Firmware Upload feature.
Please refer to the Firmware Updates section of the Liebert IntelliSlot Unity Card User Manual (SL-52645).
5. Known Issues
Component | Description |
---|---|
Device Settings | When temperature settings are made on some thermal devices, there may be some 'round-off' error of one tenth of a degree between what was requested and what the device shows after the change. This is a known limitation of some thermal device firmware versions and will be corrected in future versions of the device controller firmware. |
Liebert GXT3/4 UPS Support | The IP address of the Unity card may be displayed on the local display of the Liebert GXT4 UPS unit. The IP address is pushed to the GXT4 when the card starts up. If the address changes (for example, if it is changed by the DHCP server when the DHCP lease runs out), the local GXT4 display will continue to show the old address until the card is restarted. |
Sensor Support | While the SNMP OIDS for the GXT are backward compatible with those from the IS-WEBCARD, the text values in some SNMP varbinds and email/SMS notifications have changed slightly to use the Unity card equivalent. |
SNMP | The preferred way to change the display order for multiple sensors is through the Web user interface. If the order is changed using one of the supported protocols then the entire list of sensors should be set in the correct order (including slots that should become blank) to ensure all sensors are still included. |
Firmware Update | SNMP getnext requests may fail on some tables if there are multiple varbinds in the request. If this occurs, use single-varbind requests. |
Firmware Update | When using the Microsoft Edge browser to upgrade firmware from a 7.5.0.0 or 7.5.1.0 to another release, the web page will become blank and display an authorization error. To recover, enter the IP address of the card followed by <Enter> after the firmware upgrade completes (this typically takes 5 – 6 minutes). |
Firmware Update | An update from version 4.3 or older will fail when updating to the v7.7 release or newer. An intermediated (two step) process is required - update to V7.6, then update to v7.7 or newer. Please contact Monitoring Application support to obtain the 7.6 firmware version. |
