Notes
General Security Recommendations
We strongly recommend the following industry cybersecurity best practices.
https://www.se.com/us/en/download/document/7EN52-0390/
* Locate control and safety system networks and remote devices behind firewalls and isolate them from the business network.
* Install physical controls so no unauthorized personnel can access your industrial control and safety systems, components, peripheral equipment, and networks.
* Place all controllers in locked cabinets and never leave them in the “Program” mode.
* Never connect programming software to any network other than the network intended for that device.
* Scan all methods of mobile data exchange with the isolated network such as CDs, USB drives, etc. before use in the terminals or any node connected to these networks.
* Never allow mobile devices that have connected to any other network besides the intended network to connect to the safety or control networks without proper sanitation.
* Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and systems and ensure that they are not accessible from the Internet.
* When remote access is required, use secure methods, such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). Recognize that VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should be updated to the most current version available. Also, understand that VPNs are only as secure as the connected devices.
For more information refer to the Schneider Electric Recommended Cybersecurity Best Practices document.

Overview
Schneider Electric is aware of a vulnerability in its EcoStruxure™ Operator Terminal Expert
(formerly known as Vijeo XD), Pro-face BLUE and WinGP runtimes. This vulnerability impacts
Windows PC and Harmony iPC offers.
The EcoStruxure™ Operator Terminal Expert and Pro-face BLUE products are HMI
configuration software supporting gestures and UI designs.
WinGP is a runtime engine on Windows PC and is included in Pro-face GP-Pro EX product
which is an HMI Screen Editor & Logic Programming Software for Pro-face.
Failure to apply the remediations provided below may risk unauthorized command execution by
a local user of the Windows engineering workstation, which could result in loss of availability,
confidentiality and integrity of the workstation where EcoStruxure™ Operator Terminal Expert ,
Pro-face BLUE or WinGP runtime is installed.
January 2021 update: Added Pro-face BLUE and WinGP to the list of products affected and
links to the fixes
Overview
Customers should use appropriate patching methodologies when applying these patches to their systems. We strongly recommend the use of back-ups and evaluating the impact of these patches in a Test and Development environment or on an offline infrastructure. Contact Schneider Electric's Customer Care Center https://www.se.com/ww/en/work/services/field-services/industrial-automation/industrial-cybersecurity/industrial-cybersecurity.jsp or Pro-face's Customer Care Center https://www.proface.com/en/contact if you need assistance removing a patch.
