“These are serious vulnerabilities that affect many organisations and websites,” Bohlin says in a written comment to TT.

"The National Cybersecurity Center has today issued an alert with recommended actions. Once a security update has been released, it becomes easy for threat actors to attack anyone who has not had time to install it. Therefore, affected organisations should act immediately," he continues.
