Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains one low risk vulnerability.

1) Insufficient verification of data authenticity

EUVDB-ID: #VU23419

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 3.2 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-5291

CWE-ID: CWE-345 - Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause the target device abnormal.

The vulnerability exists due to the target system does not verify certain parameters sufficiently. A remote attacker can intercept specific packets between two devices, modify the packets, send the modified packets to the peer device and cause the target device abnormal.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.
