Siemens Security Advisory: When Error Messages Spill the Beans!
CISA has stopped updating ICS security advisories for Siemens product vulnerabilities beyond the initial advisory. For the latest scoop on these digital hiccups, your best bet is Siemens’ ProductCERT Security Advisories. Because hey, who doesn’t love a little scavenger hunt for cybersecurity updates?
Hot Take:
Siemens has decided to let CISA off the hook for updating ICS security advisories for their products. After all, who needs a professional watchdog when you can have your own pet CERT? Siemens is basically saying, “Don’t worry, we’ve got this,” while CISA moves on to tackle other cyber dragons. Let’s hope Siemens’ ProductCERT Security Advisories are the cyber version of a Michelin-star meal and not just fast food with a fancy name.
Key Points:
– Siemens will handle future updates for ICS security advisories on their own.
– Vulnerabilities in Altair Grid Engine could allow privilege escalation and arbitrary code execution.
– CVE-2025-40760 and CVE-2025-40763 are the stars of this vulnerability show.
– Siemens recommends removing the setuid-root bit as a mitigation measure.
– No remote exploitation has been reported yet, but local attackers might find it juicy.
