That link doesn't address my question.
If I were to report this, which is an old CVE by the way, will there be fixes for it if the product is EOL?

Not sure there are similar alternate robust and light TCP stacks available to replace these embedded microcontrollers TCP stacks not vulnerable to the Amnesia:33 set.
Even if available, unclear if the industry will update these tiny devices ever.

Thank you for the link. however, I am already on that version of Firmware on the switch already and the Qualys scan is still picking it up.
I know it says it fixed various vulnerabilities but doesn't really say what was fixed. This is a PCI vulnerability that we will get dinged on, in an audit, so I need something more than this.
