Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to cause a denial-of-service condition.
The following versions of Rockwell Automation FactoryTalk Historian SE, a data management application, are affected:
FactoryTalk Historian SE utilizes the AVEVA PI Server, which contains a vulnerability that could allow an unauthenticated user to cause a partial denial-of-service condition in the PI Message Subsystem of a PI Server by consuming available memory. This vulnerability exists in FactoryTalk Historian SE versions 9.0 and earlier. Exploitation of this vulnerability could cause FactoryTalk Historian SE to become unavailable, requiring a power cycle to recover it.
CVE-2023-31274 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).
A CVSS v4 score has also been calculated for CVE-2023-31274. A base score of 7.7 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (CVSS4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:H).
FactoryTalk Historian SE uses the AVEVA PI Server, which contains a vulnerability that could allow an unauthenticated user to remotely crash the PI Message Subsystem of a PI Server, resulting in a denial-of-service condition. This vulnerability exists in FactoryTalk Historian SE versions 9.0 and earlier. Exploitation of this vulnerability could cause FactoryTalk Historian SE to become unavailable, requiring a power cycle to recover it.
CVE-2023-34348 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).
A CVSS v4 score has also been calculated for CVE-2023-34348. A base score of 7.7 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (CVSS4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:H).
