Outdated or vulnerable software discovered - Action Required email notification

Issue

The customers may receive an email with the subject "Outdated or vulnerable software discovered - Action Required." if they have ImunifyAV installed.

Environment

• ImunifyAV
• WHM/cPanel
• Any operating system

Solution

It is recommended to follow the instructions on the email notification by updating any outdated software or component containing vulnerabilities and/or upgrade to Imunify360, which offers superior protection.

Cause

ImunifyAV collects information about vulnerable / outdated software with the help of app_version_detector and the emails to customers to prevent possible infections by taking the recommended actions are generated based on that information weekly (therefore the results might be slightly outdated).

Outdated software list extraction is not available, but this feature has already been included in our development backlog but there is no ETA to implement it.

In case of suspected false-positive, contact Imunify support team.
