What is CVE-2024-24955?

The Programming Software Connection FileSystem API of AutomationDirect's P3-550E firmware version 1.2.10.9 is susceptible to several out-of-bounds write vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities allow attackers to exploit specially crafted network packets, potentially resulting in heap-based memory corruption. An attacker can craft malicious packets that target a specific offset (0xb69fc) within the firmware, leading to arbitrary null-byte write conditions. The exploitation of these vulnerabilities may compromise the integrity and security of the affected systems, necessitating immediate attention from system administrators.
