Affected devices improperly handle large amounts of specially crafted UDP packets.
This could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to trigger a denial of service condition.
Specially crafted PROFINET DCP packets sent on a local Ethernet segment (Layer 2) to an affected product could cause a denial of service condition of that product. Human interaction is required to recover the system. PROFIBUS interfaces are not affected.
Specially crafted PROFINET DCP broadcast packets could cause a denial of service condition of affected products on a local Ethernet segment (Layer 2). Human interaction is required to recover the systems. PROFIBUS interfaces are not affected.
