CVE-2026-111731: P-Net infinite loop in PDPortDataCheck record handling

CVE-2026-111731 · Severity: info · Published 2026-10-29

P-Net is a protocol implementation library used in industrial and network devices. A flaw in how it processes certain network requests causes the device to enter an infinite loop and stop responding entirely, allowing remote attackers to cause a denial of service without authentication.

Technologies: RT-Labs P-Net. Vendors: RT-Labs.

Technical details

The vulnerability is an infinite loop triggered by a read request for the PDPortDataCheck record with subslot 0 (whole module). The port iteration logic fails to advance to the next port during loop processing, causing the request handler to hang indefinitely. A remote unauthenticated attacker on the network can trigger this condition to crash device responsiveness.

Affected products
