Vendor and ecosystem advisories describing this.

  • SSA-293562SSA-293562: Denial of Service Vulnerabilities in PROFINET DCP Implementation of Industrial Products2017-05-08csaf · siemens_psirtDE

    Several industrial devices are affected by two vulnerabilities that could allow an attacker to cause a denial of service condition via PROFINET DCP network packets under certain circumstances. The precondition for this scenario is a direct layer 2 access to the affected products. PROFIBUS interfaces are not affected. Siemens has released new versions for several affected products and recommends to update to the latest versions. Siemens recommends specific countermeasures for products where fixes are not, or not yet available.
