SSA-669737: Improper Access Control Vulnerability in SICAM TOOLBOX II
Notes
Summary
SICAM TOOLBOX II contains a vulnerability that could allow an attacker
access through a circumventable access control. Siemens
recommends countermeasures for products where updates are not, or not
yet available.
General Recommendations
Operators of critical power systems (e.g. TSOs or DSOs) worldwide are
usually required by regulations to build resilience into the power
grids by applying multi-level redundant secondary protection schemes.
It is therefore recommended that the operators check whether
appropriate resilient protection measures are in place. The risk of
cyber incidents impacting the grid's reliability can thus be minimized
by virtue of the grid design.
Siemens strongly recommends applying the provided security updates
using the corresponding tooling and documented procedures made
available with the product. If supported by the product, an automated
means to apply the security updates across multiple product instances
may be used. Siemens strongly recommends prior validation of any
security update before being applied, and supervision by trained staff
of the update process in the target environment.
As a general security measure Siemens strongly recommends to protect
network access with appropriate mechanisms (e.g. firewalls,
segmentation, VPN). It is advised to configure the environment
according to our operational guidelines in order to run the devices in
a protected IT environment.
