Siemens Security Slip: Buffer Overflow Blunder Leaves Plant Simulation Vulnerable!
For the latest Siemens product vulnerabilities, CISA will no longer update advisories beyond January 10, 2023. Check Siemens’ ProductCERT Security Advisories for updates.
Hot Take:
Well, it looks like Siemens’ Tecnomatix Plant Simulation is playing with fire. Stack-based buffer overflows? Really? Someone needs to remind them it’s not the 90s anymore. CISA decided to step away from babysitting these vulnerabilities, so now it’s up to Siemens to keep their house in order. Let’s hope they don’t trip over their own stacks!
Key Points:
- Siemens Tecnomatix Plant Simulation has a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability.
- CISA will no longer update ICS security advisories for Siemens product vulnerabilities beyond the initial advisory.
- Vulnerabilities can lead to code execution within the current process.
- Updates available: V2302.0015 for V2302 versions and V2404.0004 for V2404 versions.
- Mitigations include updating the software and avoiding untrusted files.
