Am I affected?
Debian, Ubuntu or Red Hat sometimes backport a fix without changing the upstream version number: such a version reads « to verify », never « affected ».With a domain, we read the version its public headers and pages expose. A distribution build can carry the fix under an older number.
Description
A vulnerability has been identified in SIPROTEC 4 and SIPROTEC Compact relays equipped with EN100 Ethernet communication modules (All versions). Specially crafted packets sent to port 50000/UDP of the EN100 Ethernet communication modules could cause a Denial-of-Service of the affected device. A manual reboot is required to recover the service of the device. At the time of advisory publication no public exploitation of this security vulnerability was known to Siemens.
