VAR-202505-1603
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-08-06 22:50A vulnerability has been identified in SCALANCE LPE9403 (6GK5998-3GS00-2AC2) (All versions). Affected devices do not properly handle multiple incoming Profinet packets received in rapid succession. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this flaw by sending multiple packets in a very short time frame, which leads to a crash of the dcpd process. Siemens' SCALANCE LPE9403 An out-of-bounds read vulnerability exists in firmware.Service operation interruption (DoS) It may be in a state. The Siemens SCALANCE LPE9403 is a local processing engine designed by Siemens for industrial field data processing. It is used to capture, collect, and pre-process industrial field data. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the DCPD process to crash
