CVE-2025-9437Network attack vector

Remote service interruption via invalid COM values

Published Oct 14, 2025 · Updated Oct 14, 2025

Denial of service in Rockwell Automation ArmorStart AOP V2.05.07 allows remote attackers to interrupt the add-on profile over a network. The Studio 5000 Logix Designer profile passes attacker-supplied invalid values into COM methods without handling the resulting exceptional condition. No privileges or user interaction are required; the documented consequence is loss of the profile's availability, not data disclosure or modification.
