## Summary

Emerson Ovation industrial control system software is affected, and it does not properly verify that firmware updates are genuine. An attacker could push malicious firmware, cause a denial-of-service outage, or run code remotely on the system.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- Emerson Ovation: through Version 3.8.0 Feature Pack 1

## Description

Emerson Ovation was found to have no authentication of firmware signing and relies on an insecure checksum for integrity. This could allow an attacker to push malicious firmware images, cause a denial-of-service condition, or achieve remote code execution.
