cab PSIRT — Report vulnerabilities responsibly

Product Security Incident Response Team

The cab PSIRT coordinates the intake, assessment and publication of vulnerabilities in cab products. Did you find a security issue? We welcome your report and will handle it confidentially.

Who we are

The Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) of cab Produkttechnik GmbH & Co KG is the central point of contact for security-related information about our products. We receive vulnerability reports, investigate them, coordinate remediation with our engineering and manufacturing teams, and publish security advisories as soon as a mitigation or update becomes available.

Our process follows the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) guidance for EU Cyber Resilience Act conformity (BSI TR-03183-1/2/3).

How the cab PSIRT works

1

Intake

We accept reports by email and acknowledge receipt as soon as possible. Reporters may remain anonymous on request.

2

Assessment

Our team analyses the issue, reproduces it on the affected product versions and rates the severity according to CVSS v3.1.

3

Remediation & disclosure

We provide a mitigation or update and publish a security advisory in the machine-readable CSAF 2.0 format including VEX status information.

Which products are in scope?

The cab PSIRT covers the full cab marking product portfolio with digital interfaces:

  • Label printers — including EOS, MACH 4S, SQUIX, XC Q, XD Q
  • Print-and-apply systems — HERMES Q, PX Q, AXON

Code of Conduct

Coordinated vulnerability disclosure depends on mutual trust. Here is what we commit to — and what we ask of you in return.

  • We credit you by name only if you explicitly request it.

What we expect from reporters      GROUND RULES 

  • The vulnerability has not yet been publicly disclosed.
  • You submit valid, verifiable technical information.
