Today CISA’s NCCIC-ICS published five control system security advisories for products from WAGO, Mitsubishi Electric, Honeywell, and Delta Electronics (2).
WAGO Advisory
This advisory describes a deserialization of untrusted data vulnerability in the M&M Software fdtCONTAINER (M&M is subsidiary of WAGO). The vulnerability was reported by Emerson. M&M has a new version that mitigates the vulnerability (but would not be compatible with existing projects). There is no indication that Emerson has been provided an opportunity to verify the efficacy of the fix.
NCCIC-ICS reports that a relatively low skilled attacker could exploit the vulnerability via a social engineering attack to allow malicious code to be executed without notice.
NCCIC-ICS reports that this vulnerability affects products from Emerson and PEPPERL+FUCHS.
NOTE: I briefly discussed this vulnerability last Saturday, but I was not aware that M&M was a subsidiary of WAGO.
Mitsubishi Advisory
This advisory describes an uncontrolled resource consumption vulnerability in the Mitsubishi MELFA product line. The vulnerability was reported by Qi An Xin Group, Inc. Mitsubishi has provided generic mitigation measures for the vulnerability.
NCCIC-ICS reports that a relatively low-skilled attacker could remotely exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial-of-service condition.
NOTE: NCCIC-ICS provided an incorrect link for the Mitsubishi advisory (listed as ‘Mitsubishi Electric website’ in this advisory). The link should have been https://www.mitsubishielectric.com/en/psirt/vulnerability/pdf/2020-019_en.pdf.
Honeywell Advisory
This advisory describes four vulnerabilities in the Matrikon (a subsidiary of Honeywell) OPC UA Tunneller. The vulnerability was reported by Uri Katz of Claroty. Matrikon has a new version that mitigates the vulnerability. There is no indication that Katz has been provided an opportunity to verify the efficacy of the fix.
The four reported vulnerabilities are:
• Heap-based buffer overflow - CVE-2020-27297,
• Out-of-bounds read - CVE-2020-27299,
• Improper check for unusual or
exceptional conditions - CVE-2020-27274, and
• Uncontrolled resource3 consumption - CVE-2020-27295
NCCIC-ICS reports that a relatively low-skilled attacker could remotely exploit these vulnerabilities to allow an attacker to disclose sensitive information, remotely execute arbitrary code, or crash the device.
TPEditor Advisory
This advisory describes two vulnerabilities in the Delta TPEditor. The vulnerabilities were reported by kimiya via the Zero Day Initiative. Delta has a new version that mitigates the vulnerabilities. There is no indication that kimiya has been provided an opportunity to verify the efficacy of the fix.
The two reported vulnerabilities are:
• Untrusted pointer dereference - CVE-2020-27288,
and
• Out-of-bounds write - CVE-2020-27284
NCCIC-ICS reports that a relatively low-skilled attacker with uncharacterized access could exploit these vulnerabilities to allow an attacker to execute code under the privileges of the application.
ISPSoft Advisory
This advisory describes a use after free vulnerability in the Delta ISPSoft PLC program development tool. The vulnerability was reported by Francis Provencher via ZDI. Delta has a new version that mitigates the vulnerability. There is no indication that Provencher has been provided an opportunity to verify the efficacy of the fix.
