Unauthenticated disclosure of sensitive device variables
Published Dec 12, 2022 · Updated Apr 16, 2025
Information disclosure in Horner Automation RCC972 firmware 15.40 allows remote attackers to read sensitive values and variable keys. CISA has not published the affected variables, access path, or operation that exposes them beyond excessive reliance on global variables. No authentication or user interaction is required, and the reported consequence is limited to confidentiality loss.
