Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
A denial-of-service security issue exists within RSLinx® Classic. A crafted CIP packet can cause the RSLinx® Classic service to crash due to insufficient data length validation, requiring a restart of the service to recover.
AnalysisAI
Denial-of-service in Rockwell Automation RSLinx Classic allows unauthenticated remote attackers to crash the communication service by sending a specially crafted CIP packet with a manipulated data length field. The root cause is an integer underflow (CWE-191) in the packet length validation routine, causing the service to terminate and requiring a manual restart to recover. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The RSLinx Classic service must be running and its CIP communication port (typically TCP 44818 or UDP 2222) must be reachable by the attacker over the network. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H) confirms a high-severity, unauthenticated, zero-complexity denial-of-service with no privileges or user interaction required. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Consult Rockwell Automation security advisory SD1794 (https://www.rockwellautomation.com/en-us/trust-center/security-advisories/advisory.SD1794.html) to obtain the patched release - a specific fixed version number is not confirmed in the available intelligence and should not be assumed. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: Identify all Rockwell Automation RSLinx Classic deployments in your environment and assess network exposure; implement firewall rules to restrict CIP packet access from external and untrusted network segments to trusted sources only. …
