## Overview

No authentication is required when updating firmware or bootloader, making it easy for malicious files to be pushed to the device. Additionally, anyone with the same software can scan a network for N-Tron devices and push/pull firmware without authenticating by using SNMP/TFTP.

## Remediation

Refer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.
