  • Sinapsi has developed a new firmware version 2.0.2870_2.2.12 that mitigates these vulnerabilities. Sinapsi released the new firmware on Monday, November 19, 2012 directly to the devices. Users will be able to manually download the firmware on their device by using the Firmware Update function in the System Menu in the device’s Web interface. Sinapsi has also posted a security newsletter to its public Web site http://www.sinapsitech.it/default.asp  .Other affected vendors have been notified by Sinapsi and ICS-CERT, but the availability of new firmware upgrades are unknown by ICS-CERT at this time.
