GHSA-H39W-8PQ5-8QH2

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-01-30 21:31 – Updated: 2025-01-31 18:31

Details

In its default configuration, the affected product transmits plain-text patient data to a hard-coded public IP address when a patient is hooked up to the monitor. This could lead to a leakage of confidential patient data to any device with that IP address or an attacker in a machine-in-the-middle scenario.

Severity ?

5.9 (Medium)


                  
                    CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N
