CVE-2023-5405: Server information leak for the CDA Server process memory can occur when an error is generated in response to a specially crafted message.

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 23/100)

  • 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: 0.40% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
  • Fixed version: Honeywell Experion Server 510.2 HF14, 511.5 TCU4 HF4, 520.1 TCU5.
  • Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Honeywell Experion Server 510.2 HF14, 511.5 TCU4 HF4, 520.1 TCU5 or later.
