Bio-IT World | After over a year of the coronavirus pandemic, it’s hard to picture another global health crisis emerging, but data indicates bacterial infections could cause the next pandemic, as several known “superbugs” have adapted to resist all available antibiotics. The effects could be highly detrimental if today’s antibiotic development model doesn’t evolve and take priority. Antibiotics typically take an average of 10-15 years to develop and at high costs, roughly 1-2 billion dollars. This is due in part to the long, risky drug development process that has become the standard.

Positive Technologies researchers discovered a vulnerability in Cisco Firepower Device Manager On-Box – a product designed to locally configure Cisco Firepower firewalls. Now patched, the flaw could allow attackers to gain full control over the device and its capabilities. That could include handing over to criminals the ability to filter traffic. Attackers could also shut down a firewall, or even access other internal resources within an enterprise, if they’re located on the same subnet.
