Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to crash NetX Duo devices with TLS 1.3 enabled, denying service.

The vulnerability exists due to an unchecked length decrement that causes unsigned underflow in the NetX Secure Certificate-message parser when processing a zero-length Certificate message. An unauthenticated remote attacker can send this message before authentication to a connecting TLS 1.3 or DTLS 1.3 client, or a TLS 1.3 server with client-certificate verification enabled, triggering an out-of-bounds read and a device fault or reset.
