A denial-of-service security issue exists within FactoryTalk® Historian Machine Edition.

MEDIUM 4.8EPSS 0.23%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.23%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

A denial-of-service security issue exists within FactoryTalk® Historian Machine Edition.  A network adjacent attacker who is authenticated could send crafted requests to the web interface, resulting in buffer overflow conditions that may cause the device to crash and become unresponsive.
