Security Notice

Check your Cogent DataHub version and see whether it is at risk.

Versions 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 are now largely unsupported or reaching end of life. Select your installed version below to instantly see whether it carries known security vulnerabilities, what changed in each release, and how to migrate to the fully supported DataHub 11 security model.

Current status
Select your version to see risk status.

Why older versions are at risk

Unsupported release
Versions 6 through 10 are end-of-life or reaching it. No new licenses are issued and no security fixes are delivered outside an active maintenance plan.
Known vulnerabilities
The 6.x and 7.x web server and command parser carry documented buffer overflows, code injection, and privilege escalation CVEs — several with public exploit code.
Recommended action
Migrate to DataHub 11 to adopt the new security model — LDAP/TOTP authentication, custom roles, and data diode mode. Download the free trial or contact our team.

What you gain with the DataHub 11 security model

Version 11 is not just a patch — it is a ground-up redesign of how DataHub authenticates users and controls data flow.

Modern authentication

Configure accounts from a local Windows machine or an external LDAP server, and require TOTP time-based two-factor authentication.

Granular roles & permissions

Create custom roles and permission sets, and differentiate user access by connection source for far more robust authorization.

Data diode mode

Configure tunnels to immediately discard all incoming data with zero processing, and pass through hardware data diodes that support TCP emulation.

Hardened tunnelling & TLS

Move past the web-server and tunnel vulnerabilities that affected 6.x and 7.x with a current, actively maintained security architecture.

Sparkplug 3 & MQTT v5

Both MQTT server and client gain Sparkplug 3 and MQTT v5 support, keeping your UNS and broker integrations current and secure.

Industrial AI connectors

New connections to Apache Kafka, Azure Event Hubs, OPC Classic HDA, and ODBC databases feed clean, governed data to your AI initiatives.
