Linux of Linux Kernel Exists in a vulnerability related to the use of freed memory.Information is obtained, information is tampered with, and service operation is interrupted. (DoS) It may be in a state. The RUGGEDCOM RST2428P is a Layer 2 Ethernet switch based on SINEC OS with up to 28 non-blocking interfaces. SCALANCE X switches are used to connect industrial components such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and human-machine interfaces (HMIs). Multiple vulnerabilities exist in third-party components prior to SIEMENS SINEC OS V3.2. These vulnerabilities could be exploited to corrupt values, leading to undefined behavior or security issues
