Remediate actively-exploited critical firewall vulnerabilities under urgency: apply interim protection, verify no compromise, and complete a coordinated remote firmware upgrade of the firewall cluster and its managed network devices.

Confirmed critical, in-the-wild authentication-bypass vulnerabilities on a high-availability firewall pair and applied the vendor-recommended interim mitigation immediately
Reviewed the devices for signs of misuse and confirmed no indication of compromise
Planned a staged upgrade path, pre-staged firmware, and scheduled a short weekend maintenance window to minimize disruption
Upgraded the firewall pair plus dependent managed switches and wireless access points remotely in a single coordinated session, restoring full cloud logging and monitoring
