Am I 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

An exploitable stack buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the command line utility getcouplerdetails of WAGO PFC200 Firmware versions 03.01.07(13) and 03.00.39(12), and WAGO PFC100 Firmware version 03.00.39(12). A specially crafted set of packets sent to the iocheckd service "I/O-Check" can cause a stack buffer overflow in the sub-process getcouplerdetails, resulting in code execution. An attacker can send unauthenticated packets to trigger this vulnerability.
