@bruce_giles - the status of Flexera One ITAM has now been updated in this article (no potential exposure).

@afilla - at this point in time no potential exposure for FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications has been identified, but analysis is ongoing.

@ChrisG can we get more details on how there is no exposure, as my customer's CSOC has identified that the a SpringFramework 3.x jar file that is vulnerable has been identified in the FNMEA agent's lib directory? They are demanding we upgrade Spring Framework but of course since it is wrapped into FNMEA we cannot do that without an update from Flexera.

@afilla - The current update on FNMEA is that while no exposure has been found to date, the research by Flexera is still "under assessment" - which means that it is still possible that some exposure will be found.

@kclausen I received that same message from reading the article and from @ChrisG 's comments. I understand that you haven't published anything. However, it's been 2 weeks since the CVE was announced and we still have no information. That is not a good enough answer. At the end of the day I am going to have to take the system offline if I don't get any "details". I need a real answer with "details".
