About this tag
The firmware update tag covers security advisories involving operational technology devices and vendor-issued fixes. Recent coverage examines Schneider Electric EasyLogic T150 and Saitel DP firmware vulnerabilities that can expose credentials, along with Hubbell Aclara Metrum devices whose web interface may allow unauthenticated operational changes and restarts. These articles explain affected firmware versions, recommended upgrade targets, and the risks posed by weaknesses in industrial equipment connected to broader enterprise and remote-access environments. The tag is useful for tracking firmware-based remediation, device security, and the practical differences between vendor-controlled upgrades and routine Windows-style updates.
