A security issue exists within the 1715-AENTR EtherNet/IP Adapter. The affected product exposes a network-accessible debug port that does not enforce proper privilege controls, allowing unauthenticated remote access to intrusive command-line interface (CLI) commands. If exploited, a threat actor could read or delete files, stop tasks, modify memory, and change I/O states, potentially impacting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the device.

Studio 5000 Logix Designer writes user-readable program code to a separate location than the executed compiled code, allowing an attacker to change one and not the other.

Remedy

Put controller mode switch into Run position. If keeping controller mode switch in Run is impractical, use the following mitigation: Recompile and download user program code (i.e., acd). Monitor controller change log for any unexpected modifications or anomalous activity. Utilize the Controller Log feature. Utilize Change Detection in the Logix Designer Application. If available, use the functionality in FactoryTalk AssetCenter software to detect changes. Risk Mitigation B: Implement CIP Security to help prevent unauthorized connections when properly deployed. Supported controllers and communications modules include: ControlLogix 5580 processors using on-board EtherNet/IP port. GuardLogix 5580 processors using on-board EtherNet/IP port. ControlLogix 5580 processors operating in High Availability (HA) configurations using 1756-EN4TR ControlLogix 5560, ControlLogix 5570, ControlLogix 5580, GuardLogix 5570 and GuardLogix 5580 can use a 1756-EN4TR ControlLogix EtherNet/IP module. If using a 1756-EN2T, then replace with a 1756-EN4TR CompactLogix 5380 using on-board EtherNet/IP port. CompactLogix GuardLogix 5380 using on-board EtherNet/IP port. The following mitigations should be applied for 1768 CompactLogix, 1769 CompactLogix, CompactLogix 5370, and CompactLogix 5480 devices: Recompile and download user program code (i.e., acd). Put controller mode switch into Run position. If keeping controller mode switch in Run is impractical, then use the following mitigation: Recompile and download user program code (i.e., acd).

Multiple Broken Authentication security issues exist in the affected product. The security issues are due to missing authentication checks on critical functions. These could result in potential denial-of-service, admin account takeover, or NAT rule modifications. Devices would no longer be able to communicate through NATR as a result of denial-of-service or NAT rule modifications. NAT rule modification could also result in device communication to incorrect endpoints. Admin account takeover could allow modification of configuration and require physical access to restore.

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

Some commands used by the Rockwell Automation ISaGRAF Runtime Versions 4.x and 5.x eXchange Layer (IXL) protocol perform various file operations in the file system. Since the parameter pointing to the file name is not checked for reserved characters, it is possible for a remote, unauthenticated attacker to traverse an application’s directory, which could lead to remote code execution.

Remedy

Rockwell Automation recommends users update to ISaGRAF Runtime 5 Version 5.72.00. End users are encouraged to restrict or block access on TCP 1131 and TCP 1132 from outside the industrial control system. Confirm the least-privilege user principle is followed and user/service account access to Runtime's folder location is granted with a minimum amount of rights needed. Rockwell Automation recommends users of affected versions evaluate the mitigations provided and apply the appropriate mitigations to deployed products. Users are encouraged to combine this guidance with the general security guidelines for a comprehensive defense-in-depth strategy. To reduce risk, Rockwell Automation recommends users: Employ proper network segmentation and security controls. Minimize network exposure for all control system devices. Locate control systems behind firewalls. Isolate control systems from other networks when possible. Refer to the Converged Plantwide Ethernet (CPwE) Design and Implementation Guide for best practices deploying network segmentation and broader defense-in-depth strategies. Consider using proper network infrastructure controls, such as firewalls, UTM devices, VPN, or other security appliances. Ensure the least-privilege user principle is followed, and user/service account access to Runtime’s folder location is granted with a minimum amount of rights, as needed. Please see publications from Rockwell Automation and Schneider Electric, Xylem, or contact GE for further information about how to mitigate these vulnerabilities in additional affected products.
