  • Apply the patch to update to version 2.10.24 or later
  • Review and revoke any existing shares created with the hardcoded key
  • Monitor for suspicious activity related to share link signature key usage
  • Confirm whether affected product deployments exist in managed environments and assign an owner for follow-up
  • Review compensating controls for exposed systems while remediation is scheduled and verified
  • Check relevant monitoring, detection, and logs for exposed assets that need extra review
  • Track exceptions, retest remediated assets, and close the item only after evidence is documented
