Uncontrolled resource consumption vulnerability in MELSEC iQ-R Series CPU Modules (R00/01/02CPU Firmware versions from '05' to '19' and R04/08/16/32/120(EN)CPU Firmware versions from '35' to '51') allows a remote attacker to cause an error in a CPU unit via a specially crafted HTTP packet, which may lead to a denial-of-service (DoS) condition in execution of the program and its communication.
This vulnerability carries a HIGH severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 7.5, indicating it can be exploited remotely over the network with relatively low complexity without requiring user interaction and does not require pre-existing privileges . The vulnerability impacts and availability (service disruption) for affected systems. Impacting 16 products from mitsubishielectric, from mitsubishielectric, from mitsubishielectric and 13 others, organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Reported in 2020, this vulnerability emerged during an era marked by increased sophistication in supply chain attacks, cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) security challenges. Security practices during this period emphasized zero-trust architectures, container security, and API protection.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For mitsubishielectric's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
