CVE-2013-4651

First published: Thu Aug 01 2013(Updated: )

Siemens Scalance W7xx devices with firmware before 4.5.4 use the same hardcoded X.509 certificate across different customers' installations, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks against SSL sessions by leveraging the certificate's trust relationship.
