This vulnerability, called CVE-2022-23121, works without user authentication. Like last year\u2019s My Book Live vulnerability, it sounds very easy to execute.<\/p>\n<p>Hackers who remotely access your cloud storage drive can wipe or copy its data. They can also upload data, including malware, to your network. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important that you update now.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the devices that may be impacted by this vulnerability:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>My Cloud PR2100<\/li>\n<li>My Cloud PR4100<\/li>\n<li>My Cloud EX2 Ultra<\/li>\n<li>My Cloud EX 4100<\/li>\n<li>My Cloud Mirror Gen 2<\/li>\n<li>My Cloud EX2100<\/li>\n<li>My Cloud DL2100<\/li>\n<li>My Cloud DL4100<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Updating your drive will disable\u00a0Netatalk Service, which is an open-source solution for the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">App<\/a>le Filing Protocol (AFP). Basically, it lets Unix-like operating systems perform file server duties for Macs. (If you\u2019re a developer who uses Netatalk Service for any application, you should <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/netatalk.sourceforge.io\/3.1\/ReleaseNotes3.1.13.html\">update to the latest version<\/a> now, as it patches the CVE-2022-23121\u00a0vulnerability.)<\/p>\n<p>Note that Western Digital is still offering coupons to customers with discontinued drives. These coupons expire April 15th, so if you have an old WD cloud storage device in your home, you should contact the company.<\/p>\n<p><small>Source: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/os5releasenotes.mycloud.com\/#\/\">Western Digital<\/a> via <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bleepingcomputer.com\/news\/security\/western-digital-my-cloud-os-update-fixes-critical-vulnerability\/\">Bleeping Computer<\/a><\/small>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\nsetTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '1137093656460433');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
