Technical details

This is a missing authentication vulnerability (CWE-306) in the REST API of the CONPROSYS IO-Link Master CPSL-08P1EN versions prior to 2.3.10. The vulnerability allows unauthenticated network-based access to critical API endpoints that control and monitor industrial I/O operations. An attacker without credentials can interact with the REST API to read I/O values and manipulate output states, potentially disrupting industrial processes. The vulnerability requires no user interaction and is remotely exploitable over the network. Patches are available in version 2.3.10 and later.
