A recent incident highlights the critical role companies in the aviation and aerospace supply chains play in maintaining national security. The failure to patch a known CVE provides an opportunity for foreign espionage, compromising sensitive information and potentially putting lives at risk. Governments, industries, and regulators must work together to improve vulnerability assessment and patch management processes, and strengthen international cooperation to address global supply chain vulnerabilities. This is crucial to preventing similar incidents and ensuring the integrity of critical infrastructure that underpins modern transportation systems. Prompt action is necessary to mitigate the risks and ensure public trust.
