CODESYS: Improper Input Validation in CmpApp component

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 26/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.62% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: CODESYS CODESYS Control for BeagleBone SL V4.10.0.0; CODESYS CODESYS Control for emPC-A/iMX6 SL V4.10.0.0; CODESYS CODESYS Control for IOT2000 SL V4.10.0.0.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to CODESYS CODESYS Control for BeagleBone SL V4.10.0.0; CODESYS CODESYS Control for emPC-A/iMX6 SL V4.10.0.0; CODESYS CODESYS Control for IOT2000 SL V4.10.0.0 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

In multiple Codesys products in multiple versions, after successful authentication as a user, specific crafted network communication requests with inconsistent content can cause the CmpApp component to read internally from an invalid address, potentially leading to a denial-of-service condition. This vulnerability is different to CVE-2023-37546, CVE-2023-37547, CVE-2023-37548, CVE-2023-37549, CVE-2023-37550

Exploit status

No known public exploit

No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.

Research context

For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.

Timeline

From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.

No dated events beyond publication.

EPSS, last 120 days

FIRST EPSS daily score; only changes of 0.01 or more are recorded (step chart).

Patch and commit links

Commit, PR and diff links among the references. A starting point for patch-diffing and variant hunting; fixes, not exploits.

No commit or PR link among the references.

Credits

All researchers

Finders, reporters and analysts named in the CNA record. Click a name for that researcher’s other records.

Variant candidates

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
