Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
zenAdminSrv.exe in Ing. Punzenberger COPA-DATA zenon 6.51 SP0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted packet to TCP port 50777, aka Reference Number 25240.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The zenAdminSrv.exe service in COPA-DATA zenon 6.51 SP0 contains a vulnerability that allows remote attackers to send crafted packets to TCP port 50777, causing either a denial of service (daemon crash) or potentially executing arbitrary code on the affected system.

MitigationRestrict network access to TCP port 50777 through firewall rules or network segmentation, apply available vendor patches, or disable the zenAdminSrv service if not required.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify if zenAdminSrv.exe service is running
    Check running processes or services list for zenAdminSrv.exe or zenAdminSrv
    Affected if The service is present and running on the system
  2. Verify the installed zenon version is 6.51
    Check the installed zenon product version through the software inventory, program files information, or zenon-specific version query method
    Affected if The installed version equals exactly 6.51 (no service pack or patch applied)
  3. Confirm TCP port 50777 is open and listening
    Use netstat or port scanning tool to check if port 50777 is in LISTENING state on the system
    Affected if Port 50777 is exposed and accepting connections
  4. Determine if the service is network-accessible
    Verify network binding configuration or firewall rules to confirm the service port is reachable from network endpoints
    Affected if TCP port 50777 is accessible from untrusted network segments

You are affected if zenon version 6.51 is installed with the zenAdminSrv.exe service running and TCP port 50777 is exposed on the network.
