Does this affect you?

It affects Cognex In-Sight 2000 series and 4 other products. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

Cognex In-Sight Explorer and In-Sight Camera Firmware expose a telnet-based service on port 23 in order to allow management operations on the device such as firmware upgrades and device reboot requiring an authentication. A wrong management of login failures of the service allows a denial-of-service attack, leaving the telnet service into an unreachable state.
