A vulnerability has been identified in Siemens' Desigo product line, affecting multiple versions of the DXR2, PXC3, PXC4, and PXC5 models.

This could facilitate a username enumeration attack, enabling attackers to ascertain valid usernames and potentially facilitating further attacks on the system.
