August 15, 2024 CISA ICS Advisory

Summary

Location Intelligence before V4.4 is affected by multiple vulnerabilities that could allow an attacker in an on-path position to read and modify data passed over the connection between legitimate clients and the affected product or brute force user passwords. Siemens has released a new version for Location Intelligence family and recommends to update to the latest version. The update is available from Siemens Online Software Delivery (OSD). CVE-2024-41681: The web server of affected products is configured to support weak ciphers by default. This could allow an unauthenticated attacker in an on-path position to to read and modify any data passed over the connection between legitimate clients and the affected device. CVE-2024-41682: Affected products do not properly enforce restriction of excessive authentication attempts. This could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to conduct brute force attacks against legitimate user passwords. CVE-2024-41683: Affected products do not properly enforce a strong user password policy. This could facilitate a brute force attack against legitimate user passwords.
