CVE-2020-25166

Status: ModifiedHigh (7.1)—

An improper verification of the cryptographic signature of firmware updates of the B. Braun Melsungen AG SpaceCom Version L81/U61 and earlier, and the Data module compactplus Versions A10 and A11 allows attackers to generate valid firmware updates with arbitrary content that can be used to tamper with devices.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
