It’s been a few months since I last had time to write an SFOS update article. In the future it will be better again. That’s why I’m even more excited to present the new features and improvements in SFOS 19.5. <\/p>\n\n

The update is for all Sophos firewalls in the SG, XG and XGS series and also the virtual appliances or instances on cloud platforms such as Azure or AWS.<\/p>\n\n

The following models will not receive the update because they do not have 4 GB RAM: XG 85(w), XG 105(w), SG 105(w)<\/p>\n\n

Vulnerability CVE-2022-3236 is closed<\/h2>\n\n

A code injection vulnerability in the user portal and WebAdmin allows an attacker to execute code in Sophos Firewall, version v19.0 MR1 and older. CVE-2022-3236<\/a><\/p>\n\n

Hosts and Services Search<\/h2>\n\n

In SFOS v19<\/a>, the object search in the firewall rules has been massively improved. In some places, however, the search function was still missing, as with the Hosts and Services objects. Here it is possible to search by name, port or IP address, which also simplifies finding duplicate objects. <\/p>\n\n

Deleting duplicate objects then, if they are still used, is still not that easy, because you don’t get a hint where this object is used.<\/p>\n\n
