CVE-2023-3825 Metadata Quick Info

CVE Published: 31/07/2023 | CVE Updated: 21/10/2024 | CVE Year: 2023
Source: icscert | Vendor: PTC | Product: KEPServerEX
Status : PUBLISHED

CVE-2023-3825 Description

PTC’s KEPServerEX Versions 6.0 to 6.14.263 are vulnerable to being made to read a recursively defined object that leads to uncontrolled resource consumption. KEPServerEX uses OPC UA, a protocol which defines various object types that can be nested to create complex arrays. It does not implement a check to see if such an object is recursively defined, so an attack could send a maliciously created message that the decoder would try to decode until the stack overflowed and the device crashed.
