Descriptions

In Patient Information Center iX (PICiX) Versions C.02, C.03,
PerformanceBridge Focal Point Version A.01, the product receives input
that is expected to be well-formed (i.e., to comply with a certain
syntax) but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input
complies with the syntax, causing the certificate enrollment service to
crash. It does not impact monitoring but prevents new devices from
enrolling.

Patient Information Center iX (PICiX) Versiones B.02, C.02, C.03, PerformanceBridge Focal Point Versión A.01, Monitores de paciente IntelliVue MX100, MX400-MX850 y MP2-MP90 Versiones N y anteriores, IntelliVue X3 y X2 Versiones N y anteriores. El producto recibe una entrada que se espera que esté bien formada (es decir, que cumpla con una determinada sintaxis) pero no comprueba o comprueba incorrectamente que la entrada cumple con la sintaxis, causando que el servicio de inscripción de certificados se bloque. No impacta la supervisión, pero evita que se inscriban nuevos dispositivos
