What to do

Solution: Thermo Fisher has developed security updates to address the vulnerability. The security updates implement the use of digital signatures on the instrument software that adds an extralayer of protection. Moving forward, this will help users verify that data files have not been modified. Applied Biosystems 3500/3500xL Series Data Collection Software: Update to version 4.0.3 https://downloads.thermofisher.com/3500_DCS_v4.0.3_Patch/v4.0.3_Patch_Installer.exe Applied Biosystems 3730/3730xL Series Data Collection Software: Update to version 5.0.3 https://downloads.thermofisher.com/3730xl_UDC_v5.0.3_Patch/3730xl_UDC_v5.0.3_Patch.exe Applied Biosystems SeqStudio Genetic Analyzer Data Collection Software: Update to version 1.2.6 https://downloads.thermofisher.com/SeqStudio/1.2.6/SeqStudio-1.2.6.abpkg Applied Biosystems SeqStudio Flex Series Instrument Software: Update to version 1.2.1 https://downloads.thermofisher.com/SeqStudioFlex/1.2.1/SeqStudioFlex-1.2.1.abpkg Applied Biosystems GeneMapper ID-X Software: Update to version 1.7.4 https://downloads.thermofisher.com/GeneMapperID-Xv1.7.4_Patch/GMIDX_v1.7.4_Patch.exe

Workaround: Applied Biosystems 3130 Series Data Collection Software: Product is End of Life (EoL), no update provided ABI PRISM 3100/3100-Avant Data Collection Software: Product is End of Life (EoL), no update provided ABI PRISM 310 Data Collection Software: Product is End of Life (EoL), no update provided For users who are unable to immediately implement all applicable security updates, Thermo Fisher Scientific recommends implementing the following interim mitigation measures until the applicable updates have been installed:  * Maintain a secure chain of custody for files generated by the HID instrumentation throughout the analysis workflow. * Store generated files on encrypted, password-protected storage media (for example, encrypted USB drives or encrypted hard drives). * Restrict access to generated files to authorized personnel in accordance with your laboratory's access control policies. * Apply the principle of least privilege by limiting user permissions on systems operating the HID instrumentation or hosting associated data analysis and secondary analysis software. * Leverage firewall rules and network access control lists (NACLs) to restrict internet connectivity to only trusted sources.
