CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

A vulnerability exists in the HCI Modbus TCP function included in the product versions listed above. If the HCI Modbus TCP is en-abled and configured, an attacker could exploit the vulnerability by sending a specially crafted message to the RTU500, causing the receiving RTU500 CMU to reboot. The vulnerability is caused by the validation error in the length information carried in MBAP header in the HCI Modbus TCP function.

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Versions of INEA ME RTU firmware 3.36b and prior do not require authentication to the "root" account on the host system of the device. This could allow an attacker to obtain admin-level access to the host system.

Remedy

INEA recommends users to upgrade ME RTU to firmware version 3.37 https://www.inea.si/en/telemetrija-in-m2m-produkti/mertu-en/ .

AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

A vulnerability exists in RTU IEC 61850 client and server functionality that could impact the availability if renegotiation of an open IEC61850 TLS connection takes place in specific timing situations, when IEC61850 communication is active.

Precondition is that IEC61850 as client or server are configured using TLS on RTU500 device. It affects the CMU the IEC61850 stack is configured on.

Null Pointer Dereference
CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/MVI:X/MVA:X/MSC:X/MSI:X/MSA:X/S:X/AU:X/R:X/V:X/RE:X/U:X

IEC 60870-5-104 used in bidirectional mode in RTU500 is vulnerable for a NULL pointer dereferencing, if a specially crafted sequence of messages is sent for a certain time, causing Denial of Service impact. Product is only affected if IEC 60870-5-104 functionality in bidirectional mode (BCI) is configured.

Null Pointer Dereference
AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

RTU500 has a vulnerability, where high-load scenarios, such as sending GI requests at short intervals, may cause a NULL pointer dereference in the last entry of the enhanced message queue. This can cause a BCIIEC104 fatal write error, resulting in connection interruption and restart, and ultimately a denial of service for bidirectional IEC 60870-5-104 communication.
