A vulnerability has been identified in SIMATIC WinCC (All versions < V7.5.2.13). Affected applications fail to set proper access rights for their installation folder if a non-default installation path was chosen during installation.
This could allow an authenticated local attacker to inject arbitrary code and escalate privileges.
An XXE vulnerability has been identified in OPC Foundation UA .NET Sample Code before 2017-03-21 and Local Discovery Server (LDS) before 1.03.367. Among the affected products are Siemens SIMATIC PCS7 (All versions V8.1 and earlier), SIMATIC WinCC (All versions < V7.4 SP1), SIMATIC WinCC Runtime Professional (All versions < V14 SP1), SIMATIC NET PC Software, and SIMATIC IT Production Suite. By sending specially crafted packets to the OPC Discovery Server at port 4840/tcp, an attacker might cause the system to access various resources chosen by the attacker.
Siemens SIMATIC HMI Comfort Panels before WinCC (TIA Portal) 13 SP1 Upd2 and SIMATIC WinCC Runtime Advanced before WinCC (TIA Portal) 13 SP1 Upd2 allow man-in-the-middle attackers to cause a denial of service via crafted packets on TCP port 102.
The remote-management module in the (1) Multi Panels, (2) Comfort Panels, and (3) RT Advanced functionality in Siemens SIMATIC WinCC (TIA Portal) before 13 SP1 and in the (4) panels and (5) runtime functionality in SIMATIC WinCC flexible before 2008 SP3 Up7 does not properly encrypt credentials in transit, which makes it easier for remote attackers to determine cleartext credentials by sniffing the network and conducting a decryption attack.
The WebNavigator server in Siemens SIMATIC WinCC before 7.3, as used in PCS7 and other products, allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via an HTTP request.
The WebNavigator server in Siemens SIMATIC WinCC before 7.3, as used in PCS7 and other products, allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges via a (1) HTTP or (2) HTTPS request.
The database server in Siemens SIMATIC WinCC before 7.3, as used in PCS7 and other products, allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges via a request to TCP port 1433.
Siemens SIMATIC WinCC before 7.3, as used in PCS7 and other products, allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging weak system-object access control.
The Project administration application in Siemens SIMATIC WinCC before 7.3, as used in PCS7 and other products, has a hardcoded encryption key, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by extracting this key from another product installation and then employing this key during the sniffing of network traffic on TCP port 1030.
