No official patch available from vendor. Implement strict access controls for the temperature monitoring infrastructure. This includes preventing regular clients from accessing the web configuration interface, thereby limiting potential points of exploitation. Conduct regular and thorough reviews of logs and user accounts on systems running the Thermoscan IP software. This will help identify and address any suspicious activities early, ensuring that any potential security breaches are caught and remediated swiftly.
