Hey All, received a security vulnerability alert today. The details are here:
The vulnerability is related to phones with multiplatform firmware. My problem is, I don't know what multiplatform firmware is. Best info I could find was from
"For partners who provide voice and video services to end customers on third-party platforms, Cisco offers specific firmware loads that support these platforms and run on the Cisco® IP Phone 8800 Series. The feature set provided by this firmware is not identical to that of the firmware designed and built for use with Cisco call control systems, but there are many similarities."
I feel kinda dumb asking, but does that mean, this is only relevant to systems/phones using Cisco phones, but not using a cisco platform such as CUCM?
Thanks!

Correct, 3PCC/MPP (3rd party call control/multi-platform phone) phones have a part number that ends in -3PCC and have a different FW from regular phones you use with CUCM.
3PCC have a configuration GUI, and not just the read-only GUI you get with enterprise FW.

Hello,
That's right. Multiplatform phones do not work with CUCM and the security vulnerability is specific to Multi platform phones which are IP Phones for approved third-party UCaaS provider platforms.
