Am I affected?
Debian, Ubuntu or Red Hat sometimes backport a fix without changing the upstream version number: such a version reads « to verify », never « affected ».With a domain, we read the version its public headers and pages expose. A distribution build can carry the fix under an older number.
Description
In ABB IP GATEWAY 3.39 and prior, some configuration files contain passwords stored in plain-text, which may allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access.
