tid-404
Vulnerability from emb3d
Type
Description

Some devices will have operating modes that put the device in an inoperable state. Devices may also have network parsing or protocol vulnerabilities that can put the device in a deadlocked or otherwise unresponsive state. A threat actor may therefore be able to send a message to a device that causes it to enter one of these deadlocked or unresponsive states, rendering the device non-functional or leaving it in an otherwise degraded state. Additionally, if the device does not have a mechanism to reset or recover from this state, it may remain unavailable until it is reset or rebooted, which may require physical operator presence.

CWE
  • CWE-833: Deadlock
