Denial-of-Service Vulnerability in Dräger Patient Monitors

CVE-2019-25716

What is CVE-2019-25716?

Dräger Infinity Delta, Delta XL, and Kappa patient monitors are susceptible to a denial-of-service issue that allows remote attackers to disrupt patient monitoring services. By sending specially crafted malformed network packets, attackers can trigger a reboot of the device, which leads to a temporary loss of monitoring capabilities. Repeated attacks can push the devices to revert to their default settings, resulting in complete network disconnection and compromised patient safety.
