IACS Radar priority score

33/ 100

Based on CVSS 5.3, EPSS 0.4%, industrial relevance 40/100.

Combines CVSS, EPSS, KEV status, industrial relevance and exposure relevance — a complement to, not a replacement for, the individual scores below and above.

Conditions for exploitation

•Network access to the affected device or segment is required.
•No valid credentials are needed.
•No user interaction required.

Operational impact & energy relevance

Limited impact on availability; the risk lies mainly with confidentiality or integrity of process data.

No strong energy-sector-specific signals recognised; general OT/ICS relevance.

Recommended defensive measures

•Apply the latest firmware or software update and validate its integrity.
•Restrict network access to the affected device to a dedicated OT management segment.
•Implement network segmentation in line with zones and conduits (IEC 62443-3-2).
•Monitor for abnormal protocol traffic using an OT-aware detection system.

Industrial relevance score

40/ 100

• Mentioned in an official CISA ICS advisory, which confirms direct relevance to industrial control systems.

Classification is provisional; manual verification by an OT security analyst is recommended.

Classified by IACS Radar-analysepijplijn (geautomatiseerd) on 7 November 2026.
