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
An authenticated remote attacker may use a stack based  out-of-bounds write vulnerability in multiple CODESYS products in multiple versions to write data into the stack which can lead to a denial-of-service condition, memory overwriting, or remote code execution.

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

CODESYS products contain a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability allowing authenticated remote attackers to write data beyond stack buffer boundaries. This can cause denial of service, memory corruption, or potentially remote code execution. The vulnerability affects multiple product versions and requires authentication to exploit.

MitigationApply vendor-supplied patches from CODESYS GmbH for all affected products and versions. Test patches in a non-production environment before deployment to verify compatibility with control system operations.

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 installed CODESYS product
    Locate the CODESYS Control runtime on the device. Check for product-specific processes or services such as 'CODESYS Control for Raspberry Pi', 'CODESYS Control for Linux', or similar. Inspect the installation directory or package list for the exact product name.
    Affected if The product name matches one of the affected products: Beaglebone, Empc A/imx6, IoT2000, Linux, PFC100, PFC200, PLCnext, or Raspberry Pi.
  2. Determine the installed CODESYS version
    Access the CODESYS Runtime information via the web management interface (typically port 8080 or 8443), or check the product version through the runtime configuration tool or installed package metadata. Look for the runtime version in the system information or about page.
    Affected if The installed version is lower than 4.8.0.0.
  3. Verify remote authentication is enabled
    Check if the CODESYS web server or network service is accessible remotely and confirm that user authentication is configured. Review the CmpWebServer settings or network configuration files to see if remote connections are permitted.
    Affected if The remote web interface or network service is exposed and authentication is configured, making exploitation possible.

A system is affected if it runs any of the listed CODESYS Control products with a version lower than 4.8.0.0 and has remote access or the web interface enabled for authenticated users.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.

dbcve · scoped
Upgrade available Upgrade to 4.8.0.0 or later
Fixed in 4.8.0.0
Interim mitigation

Apply vendor-supplied patches from CODESYS GmbH for all affected products and versions. Test patches in a non-production environment before deployment to verify compatibility with control system operations.

Recommended fix High confidence

CODESYS Control products version 4.8.0.0 or later

  1. 1. Identify the specific CODESYS Control product (e.g., Control for Linux, Control for Raspberry Pi, etc.) running in your environment
  2. 2. Check the current installed version of the CODESYS Control product
  3. 3. If the version is below 4.8.0.0, download the updated version 4.8.0.0 or later from the official CODESYS customer portal at customers.codesys.com
  4. 4. Review the release notes for version 4.8.0.0 to confirm the security fix for CVE-2022-47380 is included
  5. 5. Schedule a maintenance window to apply the update
  6. 6. Before applying to production systems, test the upgrade in a staging or development environment
  7. 7. Apply the upgrade following the standard CODESYS installation procedure
  8. 8. After upgrade, verify the new version is correctly installed and the service is running
