Risk evaluation

By tricking clients of the mentioned products into contacting malicious OPC UA servers and thereby acting as OPC UA clients, a crash of the component can be provoked.

Mitigation summary

Have your applications configured to use other than SecurityMode=None for all OPC UA connections. Avoid that these connect to an unknown OPC UA server with SecurityMode=None. In particular, avoid that your applications connect to servers which they discover via mDNS, a Local Discovery Server (LDS), an untrusted Global Discovery Server (GDS) or even trusted GDS using SecurityMode=none. Especially in the latter case an adversary might be able to apply the 'man in the middle' pattern to attack the connection and inject a bad message which triggers the vulnerability.
