Trend Micro InterScan Web Security Virtual Appliance

What an attacker could do

Probing this page fingerprints a Trend Micro InterScan Web Security Virtual Appliance, which has known command-injection and auth-bypass flaws that let an attacker run commands as root and disable web-traffic filtering for the whole network.

How to defend it

Apply current vendor patches to the IWSVA appliance and keep its admin and proxy interfaces off the public internet, restricted to internal management subnets.
