Descriptions

An unauthenticated remote attacker can read memory out of bounds due to improper input validation in the MQTT stack. The brute force attack is not always successful because of memory randomization.

Un atacante remoto no autenticado puede leer la memoria fuera de los límites debido a una validación de entrada incorrecta en la pila MQTT. El ataque de fuerza bruta no siempre tiene éxito debido a la aleatorización de la memoria.

This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of Phoenix Contact CHARX SEC-3100 devices. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the handling of JSON-encoded arrays. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a type confusion condition. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of the service account.
