CVSS v3 7.5
ATTENTION: Remotely exploitable/low skill level to exploit.
Vendor: Siemens
Equipment: LOGO!
Vulnerabilities: Insufficiently Protected Credentials, Man-in-the-Middle
AFFECTED PRODUCTS
Siemens reports that the vulnerabilities affect the following LOGO! devices:
LOGO!8 BM: All versions.
IMPACT
Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to
hijack existing web sessions.
MITIGATION
Siemens provides LOGO!8 BM FS-05 with firmware Version V1.81.2, which fixes
the first vulnerability.
Siemens recommends applying the following mitigations for users with existing
installations, and for mitigation of the second vulnerability:
Configure the environment according to the recommendations in the user manual:
https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/us/en/view/109741041 (link is
external)
Apply cell protection concept
Use VPN for protecting network communication between cells
Apply Defense-in-Depth:
https://www.industry.siemens.com/topics/global/en/industrial-security/Pages/default.aspx
(link is external)
As a general security measure, Siemens strongly recommends protecting network
access to the devices with appropriate mechanisms. Siemens advises configuring
the environment according to Siemens operational guidelines in order to run
the devices in a protected IT environment.

instructions, please see Siemens Security Advisory SSA-087240 at the following

NCCIC/ICS-CERT recommends that users take defensive measures to minimize the
risk of exploitation of these vulnerabilities. Specifically, users should:
Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems, and
ensure that they are not accessible from the Internet.
Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls, and
isolate them from the business network.
When remote access is required, use secure methods, such as Virtual Private
Networks (VPNs), recognizing that VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should be
updated to the most current version available. Also recognize that VPN is only
as secure as the connected devices.
ICS-CERT reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk
assessment prior to deploying defensive measures.
ICS-CERT also provides a section for control systems security recommended
practices on the ICS-CERT web page. Several recommended practices are
available for reading and download, including Improving Industrial Control
Systems Cybersecurity with Defense-in-Depth Strategies.
Additional mitigation guidance and recommended practices are publicly
available in the ICSCERT Technical Information Paper,
ICS-TIP-12-146-01B--Targeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation
Strategies, that is available for download from the ICS-CERT web site.
Organizations observing any suspected malicious activity should follow their
established internal procedures and report their findings to ICS-CERT for
tracking and correlation against other incidents.
No known public exploits specifically target these vulnerabilities.
VULNERABILITY OVERVIEW
INSUFFICIENTLY PROTECTED CREDENTIALS CWE-522
An attacker with network access to the integrated web server on Port 80/TCP
could obtain the session ID of an active user session. A user must be logged
in to the web interface. Siemens recommends that users use the integrated
webserver on Port 80/TCP only in trusted networks.
CVE-2017-12734 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3 base score
