Summary
Siemens Desigo Fire Safety UL and Cerberus PRO UL Fire Protection Systems

Notes

Summary
Several products used in Desigo Fire Safety UL and Cerberus PRO UL Fire Protection Systems contain buffer overflow vulnerabilities in the network communication stack. Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities could allow an unauthenticated attacker, who gained access to the fire protection system network, to execute arbitrary code on the affected products (CVE-2024-22039) or create a denial of service condition (CVE-2024-22040, CVE-2024-22041). Product-specific impact of the individual vulnerabilities is documented in the chapter “Vulnerability Description”. Siemens has released new versions for the affected products and recommends to update to the latest versions.
General Recommendations
As a general security measure Siemens strongly recommends to protect network access to affected products with appropriate mechanisms. It is advised to follow recommended security practices in order to run the devices in a protected IT environment.
Additional Resources

Recommended Practices
CISA recommends users take defensive measures to minimize the exploitation risk of this vulnerability.
Recommended Practices
Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems, and ensure they are not accessible from the internet.
Recommended Practices
Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls and isolate them from business networks.
Recommended Practices
When remote access is required, use more secure methods, such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), recognizing VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should be updated to the most recent version available. Also recognize VPN is only as secure as its connected devices.
Recommended Practices
CISA reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk assessment prior to deploying defensive measures.
Recommended Practices
CISA also provides a section for control systems security recommended practices on the ICS webpage on cisa.gov. Several CISA products detailing cyber defense best practices are available for reading and download, including Improving Industrial Control Systems Cybersecurity with Defense-in-Depth Strategies.
Recommended Practices
CISA encourages organizations to implement recommended cybersecurity strategies for proactive defense of ICS assets. Additional mitigation guidance and recommended practices are publicly available on the ICS webpage at cisa.gov in the technical information paper, ICS-TIP-12-146-01B--Targeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation Strategies.
Recommended Practices
Organizations observing suspected malicious activity should follow established internal procedures and report findings to CISA for tracking and correlation against other incidents.
