This Alert Is From MOXA

As Industrial IoT (IIoT) adoption continues to proliferate, cybersecurity has become one of the top priorities. The Moxa Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) takes a proactive approach to protect products from cybersecurity vulnerabilities. Moxa PSIRT investigates all reports of vulnerabilities that could potentially affect Moxa products. Moxa created a vulnerability management policy to provide guidance and information to our customers in the event of a reported vulnerability. The management policy ensures that Moxa’s customers have steady, unambiguous resources to help them understand how Moxa resolves or mitigates reported vulnerabilities. For any queries, please email [email protected].

TN-5900 Series prior to version 3.3 and the TN-4900 Series prior to version 1.2.4 are affected by multiple web server vulnerabilities. Insufficient input validation causes these vulnerabilities. An attacker could exploit the vulnerabilities by sending crafted input to the web service. If exploited successfully, these vulnerabilities could lead to Denial-of-Service, remote code execution, and privilege escalation. 

The identified vulnerability types and potential impacts are shown below:
