Hi,

I am trying to tackle a security issue in our environment and I am receiving multile security alerts from the server where Wowza is installed.

We have

WowzaStreamingEngine-4.4.1 and jre1.8.0\_60

The system reports

directive\_event: AV Attacks, Apache Struts S2-045 RCE (CVE-2017-5638)

But we don’t have Struts so I am would like to know if Wowza is suffering from a similar vulnerability.
