There was number of OvrC locations incorrectly reporting that all third-party devices were disconnected dues to an issue that was discovered with the OvrC Pro Application v6.2.0. This release addresses that issue and provides a permanent fix. 

Steps to update: 

Araknis Routers (AN-110/110W and AN-310)  REBOOT REQUIRED 

• These devices will require a reboot to receive the update. As rebooting the router impacts the customer, we recommend that you coordinate a time with your customer to minimize any impact. 

OvrC Pro Hubs (OVRC-300-HUB/OVRC-100-HUB) 

• These devices have been automatically updated through our normal process of managing the hub. If there is an instance where the hub is not updated, simply insure there is an internet connection and reboot the device. On reboot the device will automatically be updated. 
• This update will also update the firmware on the device to v5.1.0.6 

Control 4 Controllers (CA-Series and EA series) 

• No action is required 

Pakedge Routers (RK-1 and RT-3100) 

• These devices will be automatically updated by 3-June-2021 as part of our normal update process. No reboot is required and there is no impact to your customers.

SnapAV is aware of the coordinated disclosure of a series of vulnerabilities (dubbed FragAttacks), related to the functionality of Wi-Fi devices, released by the Industry Consortium for Advancement of Security on the Internet (ICASI) on May 11, 2021. These vulnerabilities are not unique to SnapAV products and appear to impact all Wi-Fi devices operating on the IEEE 802.11 standard. 

The vulnerabilities were identified in the IEEE 802.11 implementation of disaggregation and defragmentation.  

SnapAV is working to release patches for vulnerable Wi-Fi products. The complete list will be communicated when the timelines are available. 

It is important to note that an attacker must be physically within range of the Wi-Fi network of the vulnerable device to exploit these weaknesses. According to the Wi-Fi Alliance, there is no evidence of the vulnerabilities being used against Wi-Fi users maliciously.  

Because of this information, SnapAV believes that while it is unlikely that any customers have been affected to date, it is important that dealers apply the patches when available to protect customers.
