Horner Automation’s RCC 972 with firmware version 15.40 has a static encryption key on the device. This could allow an attacker to perform unauthorized changes to the device, remotely execute arbitrary code, or cause a denial-of-service condition.

Weakness

The use of a hard-coded cryptographic key significantly increases the possibility that encrypted data may be recovered.
