Summary
Phoenix Contact addressed three vulnerabilities in PLCnext firmware, including a critical buffer overflow (CVE-2025-41769) that allows unauthenticated remote code execution. The update also fixes denial-of-service and SQL injection flaws affecting various industrial controllers.
Take Action:
If you run Phoenix Contact PLCnext controllers, first make sure these devices are isolated from the internet and reachable only from trusted networks.
