Technical details

A denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the 10G iSCSI interface of various Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform (VSP) models. The flaw is categorized as CWE-770 (Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling), where the iSCSI port becomes unresponsive when it receives a large number of malicious packets. This is a network-based attack that requires no authentication or user interaction. Successful exploitation results in a complete loss of availability for the affected iSCSI interface. Hitachi has released updated microcode (DKCMAIN and CHB/ISFC versions) to mitigate this issue across the affected E, G, F, 5000, and VX series platforms.
