Siemens Siveillance Video Vulnerability: Password Protection Vanishing Act Alert!

Siemens Siveillance Video is facing a vulnerability that could strip password protections, leaving backups exposed. The fix? A password update via the GUI. Until then, keep those firewalls up and avoid letting your systems party with the internet. Remember, a strong defense is the best offense in the cybersecurity game.

Hot Take:

It seems Siemens is throwing its hands in the air and saying “Adios” to updating ICS security advisories for their product vulnerabilities beyond the initial advisory. It’s like a “you-get-one-shot” policy, but for security alerts. Now, Siemens users will have to channel their inner Sherlock Holmes and find the most up-to-date information directly from Siemens’ ProductCERT Security Advisories. Talk about a wild goose chase!

Key Points:

  • CISA will stop updating ICS security advisories for Siemens product vulnerabilities after the initial advisory.
  • The vulnerability involves missing encryption of sensitive data in Siemens Siveillance Video.
  • Successful exploitation can lead to removal of password protection from system files.
  • Siemens recommends changing system configuration password settings as a mitigation.
  • No known public exploitation targeting this vulnerability has been reported yet.
