Vulnerability from csaf_siemens - Published: 2025-02-11 00:00 - Updated: 2025-02-11 00:00
Summary
SSA-615116: Multiple Vulnerabilities in Apogee PXC and Talon TC Devices
Notes
Summary: Apogee PXC and Talon TC contain a vulnerability that could allow an attacker to perform a denial of service using a out-of-bounds read forcing the device to enter a cold state and a vulnerability that would allow an attacker to decrypt the passwords of the device. Siemens recommends countermeasures for products where fixes are not, or not yet available.
General Recommendations: As a general security measure, Siemens strongly recommends to protect network access to devices with appropriate mechanisms. In order to operate the devices in a protected IT environment, Siemens recommends to configure the environment according to Siemens' operational guidelines for Industrial Security (Download: https://www.siemens.com/cert/operational-guidelines-industrial-security), and to follow the recommendations in the product manuals. Additional information on Industrial Security by Siemens can be found at: https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity
Additional Resources: For further inquiries on security vulnerabilities in Siemens products and solutions, please contact the Siemens ProductCERT: https://www.siemens.com/cert/advisories
Terms of Use: The use of Siemens Security Advisories is subject to the terms and conditions listed on: https://www.siemens.com/productcert/terms-of-use.
