CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedAn out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the CODESYS PROFINET Controller allows unauthenticated attackers on the same network segment to exploit malformed PROFINET communication data, leading to a controlled stop of the PLC application. This could disrupt operational processes and potentially lead to downtime in industrial environments. Organizations using CODESYS for PLC applications should prioritize patching this vulnerability to mitigate risks associated with network-based attacks.
Original NVD Description
An out‑of‑bounds write vulnerability in the CODESYS PROFINET Controller allows an unauthenticated attacker on the same network segment to send malformed PROFINET communication data that triggers an exception in the affected PLC application. The exception is handled by the CODESYS Control runtime system and results in a controlled stop of the PLC application.
