C300 PCNT02: Integer Underflow (Wrap or Wraparound)
CVE-2025-2523 is a critical-severity integer underflow (wrap or wraparound) vulnerability in C300 PCNT02 from Honeywell, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.4 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. Affected C300 PCNT02 versions: 520.1 through 520.2 TCU9; 530 through 530 TCU3. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.79% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 57% of scored CVEs.
Critical severity: a successful attack would have severe impact.
What to do
- Check which version of C300 PCNT02 you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description
The Honeywell Experion PKS and OneWireless WDM contains an Integer Underflow vulnerability in the component Control Data Access (CDA). An attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to a Communication Channel Manipulation, which could result in a failure during subtraction allowing remote code execution. Honeywell recommends updating to the most recent version of Honeywell Experion PKS:520.2 TCU9 HF1 and 530.1 TCU3 HF1 and OneWireless: 322.5 and 331.1. The affected Experion PKS products are C300 PCNT02, C300 PCNT05, FIM4, FIM8, UOC, CN100, HCA, C300PM, and C200E. The Experion PKS versions affected are from 520.1 through 520.2 TCU9 and from 530 through 530 TCU3. The OneWireless WDM affected versions are 322.1 through 322.4 and 330.1 through 330.3.

The underlying weakness: Integer Underflow (Wrap or Wraparound)
The product subtracts one value from another, such that the result is less than the minimum allowable integer value, which produces a value that is not equal to the correct result.
