ConnectWise has shared temporary mitigation measures for a new ScreenConnect Remote Access vulnerability that it plans to patch later this week.
ScreenConnect is an on-premises or cloud-hosted remote access platform typically used by managed service providers (MSPs), IT departments, and support teams for troubleshooting, patching, and system maintenance.
The security flaw affects both cloud and on-premises deployments, and it has not yet received a CVE ID for easy tracking.
"ConnectWise has identified an issue affecting file transfer behavior in ScreenConnect® Remote Access Support and Access sessions," the company said in a security advisory issued on Thursday.
While ConnectWise is still working on a permanent fix for this security issue, it provided temporary mitigation steps designed to help block potential attacks.
