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
In multiple CODESYS products, a low privileged remote attacker may craft a request, which cause an out-of-bounds read, resulting in a denial-of-service condition. User Interaction is not required.

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 · moderate confidence

In multiple CODESYS products, a low-privileged remote attacker can send a crafted request that triggers an out-of-bounds memory read, causing a denial-of-service condition without requiring user interaction.

MitigationApply available patches or updates provided by CODESYS for affected products; if no patch exists, implement network segmentation and restrict remote access to minimize attack surface.

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 installed CODESYS products
    Check the system for CODESYS Plcwinnt or CODESYS Runtime Toolkit installations. Look in program files, common installation directories, or check installed programs list.
    Affected if Either product is installed on the system
  2. Determine installed version of CODESYS Plcwinnt
    Check the product version in the Windows Programs and Features list, or right-click on the executable and view Properties > Details for version information.
    Affected if Version is 2.0 or higher but lower than 2.4.7.57
  3. Determine installed version of CODESYS Runtime Toolkit
    Check the product version in the Windows Programs and Features list, or check version info in the runtime toolkit binaries or associated manifest files.
    Affected if Version is 2.0 or higher but lower than 2.4.7.57
  4. Verify network exposure of CODESYS services
    Check if CODESYS runtime or control services are listening on network ports. Use 'netstat -an' or similar network scanning tools to identify listening services associated with CODESYS.
    Affected if CODESYS network services are directly accessible from untrusted network segments

The system is affected if either CODESYS Plcwinnt version 2.0 to 2.4.7.56 or CODESYS Runtime Toolkit version 2.0 to 2.4.7.56 is installed and has network-facing services exposed.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 2.4.7.57 or later
Fixed in 2.4.7.57
Interim mitigation

Apply available patches or updates provided by CODESYS for affected products; if no patch exists, implement network segmentation and restrict remote access to minimize attack surface.

Recommended fix High confidence

2.4.7.57

  1. 1. Identify whether the affected system is running Plcwinnt or Runtime Toolkit from CODESYS
  2. 2. Check the currently installed version of the affected component
  3. 3. Download the fixed version 2.4.7.57 or later from the official CODESYS source (customers.codesys.com)
  4. 4. Apply the upgrade following standard CODESYS update procedures
  5. 5. Verify the installation of the patched version
