Descriptions

A vulnerability has been identified in SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU (All versions >= V2.0 and < V2.5), SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU (All versions <= V1.8.5). Specially crafted network packets sent to port 80/tcp or 443/tcp could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to cause a Denial-of-Service condition of the device. The security vulnerability could be exploited by an attacker with network access to the affected systems on port 80/tcp or 443/tcp. Successful exploitation requires no system privileges and no user interaction. An attacker could use the vulnerability to compromise availability of the device. At the time of advisory publication no public exploitation of this security vulnerability was known.

Se ha identificado una vulnerabilidad en la CPU SIMATIC S7-1500 (todas las versiones mayores que o iguales a V2.0 y anteriores que V2.5), la CPU SIMATIC S7-1500 (todas las versiones anteriores o iguales a V1.8.5). Los paquetes de red especialmente creados que se envían al puerto 80/tcp o 443/tcp podrían permitir que un atacante remoto no autenticado provoque una condición de denegación de servicio (DoS) del dispositivo. La vulnerabilidad de la seguridad podría ser explotada por un atacante con acceso de red a los sistemas afectados en el puerto 80/tcp o 443/tcp. La explotación con éxito no requiere privilegios del sistema ni interacción con el usuario. Un atacante podría usar la vulnerabilidad para comprometer la disponibilidad del dispositivo. En el momento de la publicación de asesoramiento, no se conocía la explotación pública de esta vulnerabilidad de seguridad.
