Today the CISA NCCIC-ICS published four control system
security advisories for products from Ovarro, GE Grid Solutions (2), and Weintek.
They also published two updates for products from Rockwell Automation.
Ovarro Advisory
This advisory
describes five vulnerabilities in the Ovarro TBox remote terminal units. The
vulnerabilities were reported by Uri Katz of Claroty. Ovarro has new versions
that mitigate the vulenrabilities. There is no indication that Katz has been
provided an opportunity to verify the efficacy of the fix.
The five reported vulnerabilities are:
• Code injection - CVE-2021-22646,
• Incorrect permission assignment
for critical resource - CVE-2021-22648,
• Uncontrolled resource consumption
- CVE-2021-22642,
• Insufficiently protected
credentials - CVE-2021-22640, and
• Use of hard-coded cryptographic
key - CVE-2021-22644
NCCIC-ICS reports that a relatively low-skilled attacker
could remotely exploit the vulnerability to result in remote code execution,
which may cause a denial-of-service condition.
NOTE: This advisory was originally published on February 23rd,
2021 on the restricted HSIN ICS
library. This limited disclosure allows critical infrastructure additional time
to implement mitigation measures before the vulnerability becomes public. NCCIC-ICS
does not use this limited distribution very often, the last time was on July
21st, 2020 and the time before that was on November
6th, 2018.
Reason DR60 Advisory
This advisory
describes three vulnerabilities in the GE Reason DR60 digital fault recorder
products. The vulnerabilities were reported by Thales OT Security Team. GE has
a firmware update that mitigates the vulnerabilities. There is no indication
that the researchers have been provided an opportunity to verify the efficacy
of the fix.
The three reported vulnerabilities are:
• Use of hard-coded password - CVE-2021-27440,
• Code injection - CVE-2021-27438,
and
• Execution with unnecessary
privileges - CVE-2021-27454
NCCIC-ICS reports that a relatively low-skilled attacker
could remotely exploit the vulnerabilities to allow an attacker to take full control of the
digital fault recorder (DFR), remotely execute code, or escalate privileges.
MU320E Advisory
This advisory
describes three vulnerabilities in the GE MU320E product. The vulnerabilities were
reported by Tom Westenberg of Thales UK. GE has a new firmware version that
mitigates the vulnerabilities. There is no indication that Westenberg has been
provided an opportunity to verify the efficacy of the fix.
The three reported vulnerabilities are:
• Use of hard-coded password - CVE-2021-27452,
• Execution with unnecessary
privileges - CVE-2021-27448, and
• Inadequate encryption strength - CVE-2021-27450
NCCIC-ICS reports that a relatively low-skilled attacker
could remotely exploit the vulnerabilities to allow an attacker to escalate
unnecessary privileges and use hard-coded credentials to take control of the
device.
NOTE: Neither of these advisories appear to address any of
the 17 advisories published by GE on March 17th, 2021 that I briefly
mentioned Saturday.
Weintek Advisory
This advisory
describes three vulnerabilities in the Weintek cMT product. The vulnerabilities
were reported by Marcin Dudek from CERT.PL. Weintek has upgrades that mitigate the
vulnerabilities. There is no indication that the researchers have been provided
an opportunity to verify the efficacy of the fix.
The three reported vulnerabilities are:
• Code injection - CVE-2021-27446,
• Improper access control - CVE-2021-27444,
and
• Cross-site scripting - CVE-2021-27442
