Description
The issue is related to a Denial-of-Service condition where the communication protocols and device access lack authentication measures. Remote attackers can exploit this by sending specially crafted IP packets to cause a denial of service on the PLC's network communication module, effectively stopping all network communication. The automation task remains unaffected. To restore network connectivity, the device must be restarted.

At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
