Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: B&R Automation Runtime versions prior to 6.0.2

Description: The issue allows remote attackers to compromise network security by routing IP-based packets through the host, potentially bypassing firewall, router, or NAC filtering. It is related to insecure default resource initialization and can be exploited through a local network attack vector.

Recommendations: For versions prior to 6.0.2, upgrade to version 6.0.2 or later to mitigate the risks. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the network to minimize the risk of exploitation.
