FKIE_CVE-2024-6098

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2024-08-16 15:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 08:17
Severity
5.3 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Summary
When performing an online tag generation to devices which communicate using the ControlLogix protocol, a machine-in-the-middle, or a device that is not configured correctly, could deliver a response leading to unrestricted or unregulated resource allocation. This could cause a denial-of-service condition and crash the Kepware application. By default, these functions are turned off, yet they remain accessible for users who recognize and require their advantages.
