Unauthenticated gateway reboot via Modbus length miscalculation
Published Dec 1, 2025 · Updated Dec 1, 2025
Buffer overflow in Socomec DIRIS Digiware M-70 1.6.9 allows remote attackers to reboot the gateway via unauthenticated Modbus TCP packets. modbusServerProcessData adds six to a checked header length and passes the enlarged value to Mem_Copy, overrunning a 256-byte destination and corrupting adjacent linked-list pointers. Three crafted packets in one TCP session reach the corrupted pointer, causing the device to crash and reboot.
