For ProvidersOperators, hospitals, and clinical engineering

Some Thermo Scientific software runs the Kubernetes Ingress NGINX Controller and is covered by Thermo Fisher's May 14, 2025 bulletin. Identify the deployments, check the controller version and apply Thermo Fisher's guidance. Keep the controller's admission endpoint off untrusted networks.

Find Kubernetes deployments. Identify Thermo Scientific software running on Kubernetes with the Ingress NGINX Controller.
Get the bulletin guidance. Apply the update or mitigation in Thermo Fisher's bulletin to each deployment.
Restrict cluster exposure. Keep ingress and admission endpoints reachable only from trusted networks.

For Device ManufacturersAm I affected, and how to fix the class

Am I affected?

This class applies to devices with the signals and properties below. Check them against your product to gauge exposure.

Required

Off-the-shelf software

Fix the class in your product

The advisory is not for a bug you wrote; it is in a component you embed. As the maker, pin dependencies to fixed versions, generate an SBOM on every build including transitive components, and gate the pipeline on known-vulnerable components so an advisory maps to your products automatically.

Pin and inventory. Exact versions, and a CycloneDX or SPDX SBOM as a build artifact including transitive deps.
Gate on advisories. A CI scan fails a release carrying a component with a known advisory.
Own the field patch path. Know how you deliver a dependency or platform patch to fielded devices before you need it.
