FKIE_CVE-2013-4651

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2013-08-01 13:32 - Updated: 2026-06-16 23:57
Severity
Summary
Siemens Scalance W7xx devices with firmware before 4.5.4 use the same hardcoded X.509 certificate across different customers' installations, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks against SSL sessions by leveraging the certificate's trust relationship.
