Security of the Internet of Things / Bashshock / Zipabox

Dear Zipato team,


There are more and more questions about the security of the Internet of Things.

This week a new threat appeared, it is call BashShock and is potentially worse than HeartBleed :

http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2014-6271


So my questions are :

Did you plan to patch the Zipabox, that is running linux and therefor may be running bash ? (When will you ?)

How does Zipato secure their cloud servers and infrastructure to ensure that no one can access our network through the Zipabox ?


Regards,

This is a very important question since it stabs at thereat of the entire Zipato business model - having all configuration services mandating cloud access.

Greetings,


No, the Zipabox does not have the bash shell installed. In fact, users do not even have access to the underlying Linux operating system.
