"Multiple Industrial products are affected by a vulnerability in the
Interniche IP-Stack. The affected products do not properly enforce
TCP sequence number validation in specific scenarios but accept
values within a broad range. This could allow an unauthenticated
remote attacker e.g. to interfere with connection setup, potentially
leading to a denial of service. The attack succeeds only if an
attacker can inject IP packets with spoofed addresses at precisely
timed moments, and it affects only TCP-based services.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
