The CISA advisory, previously reported by the Washington Post, recommends several mitigation measures for states using the voting machines to detect or prevent exploitation of identified vulnerabilities. The flaws, some of which stem directly from machine design, are fairly technical and would likely require any perpetrator to have direct, physical access to voting devices and/or other equipment polling management equipment. The program, first established in 2019, has examined and disclosed hundreds of vulnerabilities in both commercial and industrial use, flagged by researchers across the country and world.Īccording to Easterly, CISA is "closely engaged with election officials across the country to help them address these vulnerabilities by applying the mitigations recommended in the advisory."ĬISA has identified nine flaws within certain versions of Dominion Voting Systems ImageCast X software. The bulletin - circulated among state election officials earlier this week and publicly shared online, Friday - marks the first time CISA has used its vulnerability disclosure program to probe voting machines. In a statement Friday, CISA Director Jen Easterly wrote, "Over the past week, we've been working with election officials on information regarding vulnerabilities affecting certain versions of Dominion Voting Systems' software." She continued, "Today, we are releasing this information publicly."
"While these vulnerabilities present risks that should be mitigated as soon as possible, CISA has no evidence that these vulnerabilities have been exploited in any elections," the advisory reads. found no evidence that flaws in Dominion voting machines were ever exploited, including in the 2020 election, according to a new bulletin released Friday by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.
