Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-08-26 21:15

A vulnerability has been identified in SCALANCE LPE9403 (6GK5998-3GS00-2AC2) (All versions < V4.0). Affected devices do not properly limit the elevation of privileges required to perform certain valid functionality. This could allow an authenticated lowly-privileged remote attacker to escalate their privileges. Siemens' SCALANCE LPE9403 The firmware contains a vulnerability related to improper checking of deleted privileges.Information is obtained, information is tampered with, and service operation is interrupted. (DoS) It may be in a state. Siemens SCALANCE LPE9403 is a local processing engine for industrial field data processing of Siemens, Germany. It is used to capture, collect and pre-process industrial field data.

Siemens SCALANCE LPE9403 has a privilege escalation vulnerability. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability to elevate privileges

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
