CVE-2023-45591 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.8/10 on the CVSS scale. A CWE-122 “Heap-based Buffer Overflow” vulnerability in the “logger_generic” function of the “Ax_rtu” binary allows a remote authenticated attacker to trigger a memory corruption in the context of the binary. This may result in a Denial-of-Service (DoS) condition, possibly in the execution of arbitrary code with the same privileges of the process (root), or have other unspecified impacts on the device. EPSS estimates a 0.73% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
