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
Hard coded accounts exist in Schneider Electric's Modicon Premium, Modicon Quantum, Modicon M340, and BMXNOR0200 controllers in all versions of the communication modules.
