Summary
WAGO: Denial of Service Vulnerability in CODESYS Runtime 2.3
Notes
Summary: A Denial-of-Service Vulnerability was reported in CODESYS 2.3 Runtime. The CODESYS 2.3 Runtime is an essential component in several WAGO PLC's. All vulnerable PLCs are listed in chapter 'Affected Products'.
Impact: The reported vulnerabilities allow an attacker who has access to the device and is able to exploit the vulnerability, to manipulate and disrupt the CODESYS 2.3 Runtime of the device.
Mitigation: 1. Use general security best practices to protect systems from local and network attacks. 2. Do not allow direct access to the device from untrusted networks. 3. Update to the latest firmware according to the table in chapter solutions. 4. Disable the CODESYS 2.3 port 2455.
CWE-755 - Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions
Mitigation 1. Use general security best practices to protect systems from local and network attacks. 2. Do not allow direct access to the device from untrusted networks. 3. Update to the latest firmware according to the table in chapter solutions. 4. Disable the CODESYS 2.3 port 2455.
