The Interniche-based TCP Stack can be forced to make very expensive calls for every incoming packet which can lead to a denial of service.

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 Interniche-based TCP Stack implementation used across numerous Siemens SIMATIC and PROFINET IO devices contains a vulnerability where specially crafted network packets can trigger computationally expensive operations for each incoming packet. This creates a resource exhaustion condition leading to denial of service, as the affected devices cannot process the incoming traffic load efficiently.

MitigationApply the firmware updates provided by Siemens for each affected product family. For production environments, develop a maintenance window and test update compatibility before deployment.

Verify against the referenced sources before acting — the references below are authoritative for this CVE, this summary is not.

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 the exact device model
    Locate the physical device or check your asset inventory for the Siemens device model number (e.g., IM155-5 PN HF, CPU 1515sp PC, ATD430W, etc.)
    Affected if The device model matches one of the affected products listed in the CVE
  2. Determine the firmware version
    Access the device web interface, use Siemens TIA Portal or STEP 7 software, or check the device's system information page to retrieve the current firmware version
    Affected if The firmware version falls within the affected range: Ktk Ate530s (all), Sidoor Atd430w (all), Ate530s Coated (all), Ate531s (all), Simatic Et 200sp Open Controller Cpu 1515sp Pc (< 2.0), Cpu 1515sp Pc2 (< 2.0), Et200mp Im155 5 Pn Hf (<= 4.2), Et200sp Im155 6 Mf Hf (all)
  3. Verify network exposure
    Confirm the device has an active Ethernet or PROFINET network interface and is reachable on the network
    Affected if The device is network-connected and processing incoming TCP/IP traffic
  4. Confirm Interniche TCP stack usage
    Check device documentation or system properties via the Siemens management interface to verify the Interniche TCP stack implementation is in use
    Affected if The device uses the Interniche-based TCP stack implementation

You are affected if your Siemens device model matches one of the listed affected products AND your firmware version is within the specified vulnerable version range, and the device is network-connected.
