5.0
CVSS v3.1
Official Description
Engenio/LSI Logic storage controllers, as used in products such as Storagetek D280, and IBM DS4100 (formerly FastT 100) and Brocade SilkWorm Switches, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (freeze and possible data corruption) via crafted TCP packets.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2004-1663 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
