It affects Medtronic MMT- 508 - MiniMed pump and 18 other products. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 0.71%, higher than 53% of scored CVEs.

Medtronic MiniMed MMT devices when paired with a remote controller and having the “easy bolus” and “remote bolus” options enabled (non-default), are vulnerable to a capture-replay attack. An attacker can capture the wireless transmissions between the remote controller and the pump and replay them to cause an insulin (bolus) delivery.
