CVE-2020-25705
A flaw in ICMP packets in the Linux kernel may allow an attacker to quickly scan open UDP ports.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (6.69%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
A flaw in ICMP packets in the Linux kernel may allow an attacker to quickly scan open UDP ports. This flaw allows an off-path remote attacker to effectively bypass source port UDP randomization. Software that relies on UDP source port randomization are indirectly affected as well on the Linux Based Products (RUGGEDCOM RM1224: All versions between v5.0 and v6.4, SCALANCE M-800: All versions between v5.0 and v6.4, SCALANCE S615: All versions between v5.0 and v6.4, SCALANCE SC-600: All versions prior to v2.1.3, SCALANCE W1750D: v8.3.0.1, v8.6.0, and v8.7.0, SIMATIC Cloud Connect 7: All versions, SIMATIC MV500 Family: All versions, SIMATIC NET CP 1243-1 (incl.
