A vulnerability has been identified in SINEMA Server (All versions < V14.0 SP2 Update 1). Incorrect session validation could allow an attacker with a valid session, with low privileges, to perform firmware updates and other administrative operations on connected devices. The security vulnerability could be exploited by an attacker with network access to the affected system. An attacker must have access to a low privileged account in order to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker could use the vulnerability to compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system and underlying components. At the time of advisory publication no public exploitation of this security vulnerability was known.

A vulnerability has been identified in SINEMA Server V14 (All versions). The affected application improperly sanitizes certain SNMP configuration data retrieved from monitored devices. An attacker with access to a monitored device could perform a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) attack that may lead to arbitrary code execution with SYSTEM privileges on the application server. (ZDI-CAN-19823)

A vulnerability has been identified in SINEC NMS (All versions >= V1.0.3 < V2.0), SINEC NMS (All versions < V1.0.3), SINEMA Server V14 (All versions). The affected software do not properly check privileges between users during the same web browser session, creating an unintended sphere of control. This could allow an authenticated low privileged user to achieve privilege escalation.

A vulnerability has been identified in SINEC NMS (All versions < V1.0 SP1 Update 1), SINEMA Server (All versions < V14.0 SP2 Update 2). When uploading files to an affected system using a zip container, the system does not correctly check if the relative file path of the extracted files is still within the intended target directory. With this an attacker could create or overwrite arbitrary files on an affected system. This type of vulnerability is also known as 'Zip-Slip'. (ZDI-CAN-12054)

Siemens SINEMA Server uses weak permissions for the application folder, which allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

A vulnerability has been identified in Primary Setup Tool (PST) (All versions < V4.2 HF1), SIMATIC IT Production Suite (All versions < V7.0 SP1 HFX 2), SIMATIC NET PC-Software (All versions < V14), SIMATIC PCS 7 V7.1 (All versions), SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.0 (All versions), SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.1 (All versions), SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.2 (All versions < V8.2 SP1), SIMATIC STEP 7 (TIA Portal) V13 (All versions < V13 SP2), SIMATIC STEP 7 V5.X (All versions < V5.5 SP4 HF11), SIMATIC WinCC (TIA Portal) Basic, Comfort, Advanced (All versions < V14), SIMATIC WinCC (TIA Portal) Professional V13 (All versions < V13 SP2), SIMATIC WinCC (TIA Portal) Professional V14 (All versions < V14 SP1), SIMATIC WinCC Runtime Professional V13 (All versions < V13 SP2), SIMATIC WinCC Runtime Professional V14 (All versions < V14 SP1), SIMATIC WinCC V7.0 SP2 and earlier versions (All versions < V7.0 SP2 Upd 12), SIMATIC WinCC V7.0 SP3 (All versions < V7.0 SP3 Upd 8), SIMATIC WinCC V7.2 (All versions < V7.2 Upd 14), SIMATIC WinCC V7.3 (All versions < V7.3 Upd 11), SIMATIC WinCC V7.4 (All versions < V7.4 SP1), SIMIT V9.0 (All versions < V9.0 SP1), SINEMA Remote Connect Client (All versions < V1.0 SP3), SINEMA Server (All versions < V13 SP2), SOFTNET Security Client V5.0 (All versions), Security Configuration Tool (SCT) (All versions < V4.3 HF1), TeleControl Server Basic (All versions < V3.0 SP2), WinAC RTX 2010 SP2 (All versions), WinAC RTX F 2010 SP2 (All versions). Unquoted service paths could allow local Microsoft Windows operating system users to escalate their privileges if the affected products are not installed under their default path ("C:\Program Files\" or the localized equivalent).

A vulnerability has been identified in Primary Setup Tool (PST) (All versions < V4.2 HF1), SIMATIC Automation Tool (All versions < V3.0), SIMATIC NET PC-Software (All versions < V14 SP1), SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.1 (All versions), SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.2 (All versions < V8.2 SP1), SIMATIC STEP 7 (TIA Portal) V13 (All versions < V13 SP2), SIMATIC STEP 7 (TIA Portal) V14 (All versions < V14 SP1), SIMATIC STEP 7 V5.X (All versions < V5.6), SIMATIC WinAC RTX 2010 SP2 (All versions), SIMATIC WinAC RTX F 2010 SP2 (All versions), SIMATIC WinCC (TIA Portal) V13 (All versions < V13 SP2), SIMATIC WinCC (TIA Portal) V14 (All versions < V14 SP1), SIMATIC WinCC V7.2 and prior (All versions), SIMATIC WinCC V7.3 (All versions < V7.3 Update 15), SIMATIC WinCC V7.4 (All versions < V7.4 SP1 Upd1), SIMATIC WinCC flexible 2008 (All versions < flexible 2008 SP5), SINAUT ST7CC (All versions installed in conjunction with SIMATIC WinCC < V7.3 Update 15), SINEMA Server (All versions < V14), SINUMERIK 808D Programming Tool (All versions < V4.7 SP4 HF2), SMART PC Access (All versions < V2.3), STEP 7 - Micro/WIN SMART (All versions < V2.3), Security Configuration Tool (SCT) (All versions < V5.0). Specially crafted PROFINET DCP broadcast packets sent to the affected products on a local Ethernet segment (Layer 2) could cause a Denial-of-Service condition of some services. The services require manual restart to recover.

A vulnerability has been identified in SINEMA Server (All versions < V14 SP3). Missing authentication for functionality that requires administrative user identity could allow an attacker to obtain encoded system configuration backup files. This is only possible through network access to the affected system, and successful exploitation requires no system privileges.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Siemens SINEMA Server. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The ZDI has assigned a CVSS rating of 7.5. The following CVEs are assigned: CVE-2023-35796.
