Rockwell Automation was made aware of a vulnerability by a security researcher from Georgia Institute of Technology that the MicroLogix 1100 and 1400 controllers contain a vulnerability that may give an attacker the ability to accomplish remote code execution.  The vulnerability is an unauthenticated stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the embedded webserver. The payload is transferred to the controller over SNMP and is rendered on the homepage of the embedded website.

Rockwell Automation was made aware that the webservers of the Micrologix 1100 and 1400 controllers contain a vulnerability that may lead to a denial-of-service condition. The security vulnerability could be exploited by an attacker with network access to the affected systems by sending TCP packets to webserver and closing it abruptly which would cause a denial-of-service condition for the web server application on the device

The X-Frame-Options header in Rockwell Automation MicroLogix 1100/1400 Versions 21.007 and prior is not configured in the HTTP response, which could allow clickjacking attacks.

Required Keyswitch State: REMOTE Description: Any input or output can be forced, causing unpredictable activity from the PLC.

An exploitable access control vulnerability exists in the data, program, and function file permissions functionality of Allen Bradley Micrologix 1400 Series B FRN 21.2 and before. A specially crafted packet can cause a read or write operation resulting in disclosure of sensitive information, modification of settings, or modification of ladder logic. An attacker can send unauthenticated packets to trigger this vulnerability. Required Keyswitch State: REMOTE Description: Live rung edits are able to be made by an unauthenticated user allowing for addition, deletion, or modification of existing ladder logic. Additionally, faults and cpu state modification can be triggered if specific ladder logic is used.

An exploitable insufficient resource pool vulnerability exists in the session communication functionality of Allen Bradley Micrologix 1400 Series B Firmware 21.2 and before. A specially crafted stream of packets can cause a flood of the session resource pool resulting in legitimate connections to the PLC being disconnected. An attacker can send unauthenticated packets to trigger this vulnerability.

An exploitable access control vulnerability exists in the data, program, and function file permissions functionality of Allen Bradley Micrologix 1400 Series B FRN 21.2 and before. A specially crafted packet can cause a read or write operation resulting in disclosure of sensitive information, modification of settings, or modification of ladder logic. An attacker can send unauthenticated packets to trigger this vulnerability.Required Keyswitch State: REMOTE or PROG Associated Fault Code: 0001 Fault Type: Non-User Description: A fault state can be triggered by setting the NVRAM/memory module user program mismatch bit (S2:9) when a memory module is NOT installed.

An exploitable denial of service vulnerability exists in the processing of snmp-set commands of the Allen Bradley Micrologix 1400 Series B FRN 21.2 and below. A specially crafted snmp-set request, when sent without associated firmware flashing snmp-set commands, can cause a device power cycle resulting in downtime for the device. An attacker can send one packet to trigger this vulnerability.

An exploitable access control vulnerability exists in the data, program, and function file permissions functionality of Allen Bradley Micrologix 1400 Series B FRN 21.2 and before. A specially crafted packet can cause a read or write operation resulting in disclosure of sensitive information, modification of settings, or modification of ladder logic. An attacker can send unauthenticated packets to trigger this vulnerability. Required Keyswitch State: REMOTE or PROG Description: The filetype 0x03 allows users write access, allowing the ability to overwrite the Master Password value stored in the file.

An exploitable access control vulnerability exists in the data, program, and function file permissions functionality of Allen Bradley Micrologix 1400 Series B FRN 21.2 and before. A specially crafted packet can cause a read or write operation resulting in disclosure of sensitive information, modification of settings, or modification of ladder logic. An attacker can send unauthenticated packets to trigger this vulnerability. Required Keyswitch State: REMOTE or PROG Associated Fault Codes: 0023, 002e, and 0037 Fault Type: Recoverable Description: The STI, EII, and HSC function files contain bits signifying whether or not a fault has occurred. Additionally there is a bit signaling the module to auto start. When these bits are set for any of the three modules and the device is moved into a run state, a fault is triggered.

An exploitable access control vulnerability exists in the data, program, and function file permissions functionality of Allen Bradley Micrologix 1400 Series B FRN 21.2 and before. A specially crafted packet can cause a read or write operation resulting in disclosure of sensitive information, modification of settings, or modification of ladder logic.
