Has Netgear GS748TS been affected by Log4J?
Has Netgear GS748TS been affected by Log4J?
Where can I find information on which products are affected?
Thanks,
Hello Rostam and NETGEAR Community,
We at NETGEAR take product security very seriously and we work proactively to protect the privacy and security of your data. NETGEAR is actively investigating the potential risks posed by this vulnerability to customers using our products and services. At this time, we do not believe that NETGEAR hardware products are affected. Certain cloud components, however, are affected and we are auditing and deploying mitigation measures to our cloud infrastructure and services to eliminate potential risks.
Since this situation is dynamic and evolving, we will continue to investigate and actively monitor for new developments and will deploy any further mitigation countermeasures should they be required. We will provide further status updates and guidance to our customers as additional information becomes available.
We appreciate having security concerns brought to our attention and are constantly monitoring our products to get in front of the latest threats. Being proactive rather than reactive to emerging security issues is a fundamental belief at NETGEAR.

This is the ReadyNAS forum, not the right place to post a question about a switch. As FURRYe38 already advised you (on your other post in the wrong forum), you should be posting your question here: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Managed-Switches/bd-p/business-managed-switches
A couple of days ago, someone from Netgear said
"NETGEAR is aware of this vulnerability. Our initial findings confirm this vulnerability does not appear to affect NETGEAR products or services. However, we are continuing to investigate any possible risks."
