3.2 VULNERABILITY OVERVIEW

3.2.1 IMPROPER VALIDATION OF SPECIFIED QUANTITY IN INPUT CWE-1284

A remote attacker could cause a denial-of-service (DoS) condition in the products by sending specially crafted UDP packets. The threat arises when the affected product does not receive a valid UDP packet within 3 seconds after receiving a specially crafted UDP packet from a remote attacker, necessitating a system reset of the product for recovery.

CVE-2025-3511 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3.1 base score of 5.9 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (AV: N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).

A CVSS v4 score has also been calculated for CVE-2025-3511. A base score of 8.2 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (AV:N/AC:H/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N).

3.3 BACKGROUND
