Frequently Asked Questions
What is CVE-2021-4105?
CVE-2021-4105 is a critical-severity vulnerability tracked under the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures program. Improper Handling of Parameters vulnerability in BG-TEK COSLAT Firewall allows Remote Code Inclusion.
This issue affects COSLAT Firewall: from 5.24.0.R.20180630 before 5.24.0.R.20210727.
Am I affected?
Check whether your environment runs coslat_bx5s1d3_firmware, coslat_bx5s1d3, coslat_bx5s1d4_firmware, coslat_bx5s1d4, coslat_bx5s1d5_firmware. If you operate any of those, treat yourself as in scope until you have evidence otherwise. A Vulnios scan will identify the exact assets carrying the affected version.
How urgent is the response?
Critical: do not wait for your normal patch cycle. Verify exposure today, apply the vendor patch immediately, and add detection rules for any post-exploit indicators.
How do I remediate?
Apply the vendor patch listed in the upstream advisory linked under Sources. If the patch is not yet available, follow the vendor-supplied workaround (often a config flag or feature disable) and add detections for the published exploit pattern in your SIEM. Re-scan after the patch lands to confirm the finding clears.
Where can I track exploitation activity?
Watch CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog for CVE-2021-4105. Cross-reference with public exploit databases and your own SIEM/IDS for indicator-of-compromise patterns. Vulnios tracks KEV status automatically and surfaces it on the asset findings view.
How does Vulnios help with this?
Vulnios continuously cross-references your asset inventory against the live CVE feed (NVD, vendor advisories, CISA KEV, and curated OSINT). When a new CVE matches your environment, you get a prioritized finding with the severity, KEV status, exploit-prediction (EPSS), and a direct path to the vendor patch.
