Technical description

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.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
