"The following text was originally created by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). The original
can be found at CISA.gov.

B&R reports product-technical reasons disallow the changing of SNMP credentials. To reduce risk from this vulnerability,
the following Automation Studio versions disable the SNMP service by default in newly created AS projects:

- AS 4.6.5 (Planned release date: 2020-03-27) and higher
- AS 4.7.3 (Planned release date: 2020-04-10) and higher
- AS 4.8.2 (Planned release date: 2020-06-11) and higher

B&R reports the above-mentioned dates denoted as planned are preliminary and may be subject to change. Registered users
may approach their local B&R service organization in case of questions. B&R recommends that affected users evaluate
their need for the SNMP service and disable it if possible. For more information related to this vulnerability please
refer to the B&R advisory. For additional information and support, please contact B&R service.");
