AI Analysis

Impact

An always‑incorrect control flow implementation (CWE‑670) in Mitsubishi Electric’s MELSEC iQ‑F Series FX5‑ENET/IP Ethernet Module FX5‑ENET/IP versions 1.106 and prior, and the FX5‑EIP EtherNet/IP Module FX5‑EIP versions 1.000 and prior, permits a remote attacker to trigger a denial‑of‑service condition by repeatedly sending UDP packets to the device. The continuous flood causes internal state corruption and results in a persistent DoS that can only be recovered through a system reset.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects Mitsubishi Electric’s MELSEC iQ‑F Series FX5‑EIP EtherNet/IP Module FX5‑EIP (all released versions) and the FX5‑ENET/IP Ethernet Module FX5‑ENET/IP versions up to and including 1.106. Network engineers must verify that any deployed devices of these models are within this version range.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.7 indicates a high impact on availability, while the EPSS value of less than 1% suggests a low likelihood of exploitation. The flaw is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, and no authentication is required, meaning any unauthenticated actor can trigger the DoS by sending crafted UDP packets over the network.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the firmware or software on all affected FX5‑EIP and FX5‑ENET/IP modules to the latest Mitsubishi‑Electric release that corrects the UDP handling flaw.
  • Configure network perimeter devices or firewalls to block unsolicited UDP traffic destined for the IP addresses of the affected modules, permitting only traffic from known, authorized control systems.
  • As a temporary measure, isolate the modules on a dedicated, VLAN‑segmented network segment with strict access controls, and if possible disable or rate‑limit all non‑essential UDP services until a patch is applied.
