Summary
SSA-552330: System Configuration Password Reset in Siveillance Video V2024 R1

Notes

Summary
The installer of Siveillance Video V2024 R1 resets the system configuration password when updating from older versions of Siveillance Video. This could inadvertently remove the password protection from system configuration files, also affecting backup data sets that were created after the update to V2024 R1. Siemens recommends to change the system configuration password settings for systems that were updated from any older version to V2024 R1.
General Recommendations
As a general security measure Siemens strongly recommends to protect network access to affected products with appropriate mechanisms. It is advised to follow recommended security practices in order to run the devices in a protected IT environment.
