CVE-2021-33536Network attack vector

Unauthenticated device crash via integer-underflowed memcpy

Published Jun 25, 2021 · Updated Sep 17, 2024

Denial of service in Weidmüller Industrial WLAN devices through 1.16.18 or 1.11.10 allows remote attackers to crash affected devices. ServiceAgent processes a crafted packet with an integer underflow, causing a large memcpy to access unmapped or out-of-bounds memory. No authentication or user interaction is required, and the reported consequence is an availability interruption rather than data access or modification.
