Many modern IoT devices, cloud applications and technologies run on a Linux variant, which must be protected as an important part of modern infrastructures. As the study shows, most vulnerabilities originated from systems with outdated versions of Linux distributions, including 44 percent from CentOS versions 7.4 to 7.9. In addition, 200 different vulnerabilities were exploited in Linux environments in just six months, for example via port 22 in IoT applications.
