AI-suggested
Until a patch is available, restrict network access to the affected services to trusted hosts only and monitor for unusual CPU usage patterns related to SDC message processing.
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.
