Vulnerability from csaf_siemens - Published: 2021-12-14 00:00 - Updated: 2025-03-11 00:00Summary
SSA-620288: Multiple Vulnerabilities (NUCLEUS:13) in Capital Embedded AR Classic
Notes
Summary: Multiple vulnerabilities (also known as "NUCLEUS:13") have be identified in the Nucleus RTOS (real-time operating system) and reported in the Siemens Security Advisory SSA-044112:
https://cert-portal.siemens.com/productcert/html/ssa-044112.html.
Capital Embedded AR Classic uses an affected version of the Nucleus software and inherently contains several of these vulnerabilities.
Siemens has released a new version for Capital Embedded AR Classic R20-11 and recommends to update to the latest version. Siemens is preparing further fix versions and recommends specific countermeasures for products where fixes are not, or not yet available.
General Recommendations: As a general security measure, Siemens strongly recommends to protect network access to devices with appropriate mechanisms. In order to operate the devices in a protected IT environment, Siemens recommends to configure the environment according to Siemens' operational guidelines for Industrial Security (Download:
https://www.siemens.com/cert/operational-guidelines-industrial-security), and to follow the recommendations in the product manuals.
