AI Insight
LLM-synthesized narrative grounded in this CVE's description and references.
Dräger Infinity patient monitors have network message handling flaws allowing attackers to tamper with data, cause DoS, and reboot devices.
Vulnerability
Dräger Infinity Acute Care System and Standalone Infinity M540 patient monitors running software versions VG4.1.1, VG4.0.3, and lower contain network message handling vulnerabilities. These flaws allow network-adjacent attackers to spoof or tamper with data and cause denial-of-service conditions [2].
Exploitation
Attackers require access to an enabled Infinity network port or physical proximity to a wireless access point. They can then modify device settings, such as alarm states or alarm limits, or overwhelm the system with incoming data, causing the device to reboot and lose network functionality [2].
Impact
Successful exploitation allows attackers to spoof or tamper with critical patient monitor data, including alarm states and limits. Additionally, attackers can cause a denial-of-service condition, leading to device reboots and loss of network functionality, potentially impacting patient care [2].
Mitigation
Not yet disclosed in the available references. Dräger encourages responsible reporting of vulnerabilities [1].
