| CVE | Weakness | CVSS v3 | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2020-27212 | CWE-74 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component ('Injection') | 7.0 High |
A local code execution vulnerability exists in the STMicroelectronics STM32L4 devices due to having incorrect access controls. The affected product utilizes the STMicroelectronics STM32L4 device and because of the vulnerability, a threat actor could reverse protections that control access to the JTAG interface. If exploited, a threat actor can take over the device. Mitigation: Rockwell Automation encourages users of the affected software to apply the risk mitigations if possible: Mitigation: Limit physical access to authorized personnel: Control room, cells/areas, control panels, and devices. See Chapter 4, Harden the Control System of System Security Design Guidelines. ↗ Mitigation: For information on how to mitigate security risks on industrial automation control systems, Rockwell Automation encourage users to implement security best practices to minimize the risk of the vulnerability. ↗ Affected, fixed & timelineAffected:
