A vulnerability has been identified in IEC 61850 system configurator (All versions < V5.80), DIGSI 5 (affected as IEC 61850 system configurator is incorporated) (All versions < V7.80), DIGSI 4 (All versions < V4.93), SICAM PAS/PQS (All versions < V8.11), SICAM PQ Analyzer (All versions < V3.11), SICAM SCC (All versions < V9.02 HF3). A service of the affected products listening on all of the host's network interfaces on either port 4884/TCP, 5885/TCP, or port 5886/TCP could allow an attacker to either exfiltrate limited data from the system or to execute code with Microsoft Windows user permissions. Successful exploitation requires an attacker to be able to send a specially crafted network request to the vulnerable service and a user interacting with the service's client application on the host. In order to execute arbitrary code with Microsoft Windows user permissions, an attacker must be able to plant the code in advance on the host by other means. The vulnerability has limited impact to confidentiality and integrity of the affected system. At the time of advisory publication no public exploitation of this security vulnerability was known. Siemens confirms the security vulnerability and provides mitigations to resolve the security issue.

A vulnerability has been identified in DIGSI 4 (All versions < V4.92), EN100 Ethernet module DNP3 variant (All versions < V1.05.00), EN100 Ethernet module IEC 104 variant (All versions), EN100 Ethernet module IEC 61850 variant (All versions < V4.30), EN100 Ethernet module Modbus TCP variant (All versions), EN100 Ethernet module PROFINET IO variant (All versions), Other SIPROTEC 4 relays (All versions), Other SIPROTEC Compact relays (All versions), SIPROTEC 4 7SD80 (All versions < V4.70), SIPROTEC 4 7SJ61 (All versions < V4.96), SIPROTEC 4 7SJ62 (All versions < V4.96), SIPROTEC 4 7SJ64 (All versions < V4.96), SIPROTEC 4 7SJ66 (All versions < V4.30), SIPROTEC Compact 7SJ80 (All versions < V4.77), SIPROTEC Compact 7SK80 (All versions < V4.77). An attacker with local access to the engineering system or in a privileged network position and able to obtain certain network traffic could possibly reconstruct access authorization passwords.

A vulnerability has been identified in DIGSI 4 (All versions < V4.92), EN100 Ethernet module DNP3 variant (All versions < V1.05.00), EN100 Ethernet module IEC 104 variant (All versions), EN100 Ethernet module IEC 61850 variant (All versions < V4.30), EN100 Ethernet module Modbus TCP variant (All versions), EN100 Ethernet module PROFINET IO variant (All versions). The device engineering mechanism allows an unauthenticated remote user to upload a modified device configuration overwriting access authorization passwords.

A vulnerability has been identified in DIGSI 4 (All versions < V4.94 SP1 HF 1). Several folders in the %PATH% are writeable by normal users. As these folders are included in the search for dlls, an attacker could place dlls there with code executed by SYSTEM.
