Summary
Rockwell Automation 1732E ArmorBlock® I/O from 0 through 3.012 is affected. The device mishandles network storm traffic because it allocates resources without limits or throttling (CWE-770). A remote unauthenticated attacker can interrupt communication, cause device faults and affect open TCP and UDP ports, and a power cycle is required to restore normal operation.
