**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Medtronic MyCareLink Monitor versions 24950 through 24952 CareLink Monitor version 2490C CareLink 2090 Programmer Amplia CRT-D Claria CRT-D Compia CRT-D Concerto CRT-D Concerto II CRT-D Consulta CRT-D Evera ICD Maximo II CRT-D and ICD Mirro ICD Nayamed ND ICD Primo ICD Protecta ICD and CRT-D Secura ICD Virtuoso ICD Virtuoso II ICD Visia AF ICD Viva CRT-D **Description** The Conexus telemetry protocol used in the affected devices does not implement encryption. This allows an attacker with adjacent short-range access to listen to communications, including the transmission of sensitive data. **Recommendations** For Medtronic MyCareLink Monitor versions 24950 and 24952, consider implementing additional security measures to protect data transmission. For CareLink Monitor version 2490C, restrict access to the device to minimize the risk of exploitation. For CareLink 2090 Programmer, Amplia CRT-D, Claria CRT-D, Compia CRT-D, Concerto CRT-D, Concerto II CRT-D, Consulta CRT-D, Evera ICD, Maximo II CRT-D and ICD, Mirro ICD, Nayamed ND ICD, Primo ICD, Protecta ICD and CRT-D, Secura ICD, Virtuoso ICD, Virtuoso II ICD, Visia AF ICD, and Viva CRT-D, at the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.

**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Medtronic MyCareLink Monitor versions 24950 through 24952 CareLink Monitor version 2490C CareLink 2090 Programmer Amplia CRT-D Claria CRT-D Compia CRT-D Concerto CRT-D Concerto II CRT-D Consulta CRT-D Evera ICD Maximo II CRT-D and ICD Mirro ICD Nayamed ND ICD Primo ICD Protecta ICD and CRT-D Secura ICD Virtuoso ICD Virtuoso II ICD Visia AF ICD Viva CRT-D **Description** The Conexus telemetry protocol used in the affected products does not implement authentication or authorization. An attacker with adjacent short-range access to an affected product can inject, replay, modify, and/or intercept data within the telemetry communication when the product's radio is turned on. This allows an attacker to read and write memory values to affected implanted cardiac devices, potentially changing memory in the implanted cardiac device. **Recommendations** For Medtronic MyCareLink Monitor versions 24950 through 24952, consider disabling the Conexus telemetry protocol until a patch is available. For CareLink Monitor version 2490C, restrict access to the device when not in use to minimize the risk of exploitation. For all other affected devices, avoid using the telemetry communication feature until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.

**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Medtronic MyCareLink Patient Monitor versions all Medtronic 24950 MyCareLink Monitor versions all Medtronic 24952 MyCareLink Monitor versions all **Description** The issue concerns a hard-coded operating system password in the affected devices. An attacker who gains physical access to the device can exploit this by removing the case, connecting to the debug port, and using the password to gain privileged access to the operating system. **Recommendations** For Medtronic MyCareLink Patient Monitor, consider restricting physical access to the device to minimize the risk of exploitation. For Medtronic 24950 MyCareLink Monitor, restrict physical access to the device until a fix is available. For Medtronic 24952 MyCareLink Monitor, limit access to the debug port to prevent unauthorized use of the hard-coded password.
