MEDIUM 5.3

DescriptionCVE.org

CWE-400 Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability exists that could cause excessive troubleshooting zip file creation and denial of service when a Web Admin user floods the system with POST /helpabout requests.

AnalysisAI

Denial of service in Schneider Electric PowerChute Serial Shutdown versions 1.4 and prior allows authenticated Web Admin users to trigger uncontrolled resource consumption by flooding the system with POST requests to the /helpabout endpoint, causing excessive troubleshooting zip file creation and service degradation. Attack requires valid admin credentials and network access to the web interface; CVSS 5.3 reflects low availability impact with no confidentiality or integrity compromise.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability stems from insufficient resource consumption controls (CWE-400) in the web administration interface of PowerChute Serial Shutdown. When a user with Web Admin privileges submits repeated POST requests to the /helpabout endpoint, the application generates troubleshooting zip files without rate limiting or quotas. This uncontrolled file creation exhausts disk space and processing resources, degrading or denying availability of the service. The affected product is Schneider Electric PowerChute Serial Shutdown, a Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) management solution commonly deployed in critical infrastructure environments.

RemediationAI

Upgrade Schneider Electric PowerChute Serial Shutdown to a version after 1.4 (exact patched version not specified in available data; consult vendor release notes for confirmation). As an interim measure, restrict network access to the web administration interface to trusted IP ranges and implement Web Admin account governance to limit credential exposure and reduce the risk of internal compromise. Monitor disk usage and system resource consumption for abnormal patterns indicative of troubleshooting zip file flooding. Refer to Schneider Electric advisory SEVD-2026-104-01 for additional mitigation details.
