Who should care

OT/ICS operators using Vertiv Liebert RDU101 or Liebert IS-UNITY, especially teams responsible for remote management interfaces, network segmentation, patching, and asset inventory. Security teams should also prioritize any internet-exposed or broadly reachable management interfaces.

Technical summary

The advisory describes an authentication-bypass weakness in webserver functionality for Vertiv products. Affected versions are Vertiv Liebert RDU101 <= 1.9.0.0 and Vertiv Liebert IS-UNITY <= 8.4.1.0. The supplied CVSS 3.1 vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, consistent with a network-reachable issue that can have high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. Vertiv lists fixed versions: Liebert RDU101 v1.9.1.2_0000001 and IS-UNITY v8.4.3.1_00160.

Defensive priority

Immediate. This is a critical, remotely reachable authentication-bypass issue with vendor fixes available and high potential impact in industrial environments.

Recommended defensive actions

  • Upgrade Vertiv Liebert IS-UNITY to v8.4.3.1_00160.
  • Restrict access to device web management interfaces to trusted administrative networks only.
  • Review exposure of affected management interfaces and remove any unnecessary internet or broad network reachability.
  • Validate asset inventory to confirm whether either affected product is deployed and at a vulnerable version.
  • Use Vertiv's security support center for vendor guidance and coordination.
