Description

Dräger Core 1.0.5 and Dräger M540 Converter Service 1.0.9 contain a denial of service vulnerability that allows network-adjacent attackers to trigger high CPU load by sending specially crafted, unencrypted SDC messages during the discovery process. Attackers with access to the hospital network can send malformed SDC packets to exhaust CPU resources in the affected process, causing further SDC messages to no longer be processed.
