VULNERABILITY DETAILS Rockwell Automation used the latest versions of the CVSS scoring system to assess the following vulnerabilities. The following vulnerabilities were reported to us by Sharon Brizinov of Claroty Research - Team82. A feature in the affected products enables users to prepare a project file with an embedded VBA script and can be configured to run once the project file has been opened without user intervention. This feature can be abused to trick a legitimate user into executing malicious code upon opening an infected RSP/RSS project file. If exploited, a threat actor may be able to perform a remote code execution. Connected devices may also be impacted by exploitation of this vulnerability.

A denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the Rockwell Automation PowerFlex® 600T. If the device is overloaded with requests, it will become unavailable. The device may require a power cycle to recover it if it does not re-establish a connection after it stops receiving requests.

Rockwell Automation RSLogix 5000 7 through 20.01, and 21.0, does not properly implement password protection for .ACD files (aka project files), which allows local users to obtain sensitive information or modify data via unspecified vectors.

A vulnerability exists in the affected product that allows a malicious user to restart the Rockwell Automation PanelView™ Plus 7 terminal remotely without security protections. If the vulnerability is exploited, it could lead to the loss of view or control of the PanelView™ product.

A security issue exists within FactoryTalk Activation Manager. An error in the implementation of cryptography within the software could allow attackers to decrypt traffic. This could result in data exposure, session hijacking, or full communication compromise.

A security issue exists in the protected mode of 1756-EN4TR and 1756-EN2TR communication modules, where a Concurrent Forward Close operation can trigger a Major Non-Recoverable (MNFR) fault. This condition may lead to unexpected system crashes and loss of device availability.

A security issue exists in the protected mode of EN4TR devices, where sending specifically crafted messages during a Forward Close operation can cause the device to crash.

An open database issue exists in the affected product and version. The security issue stems from an over permissive Redis instance. This could result in an attacker on the intranet accessing sensitive data and potential alteration of data.

A memory abuse issue exists in the Rockwell Automation Arena® Simulation. A custom file can force Arena Simulation to read and write past the end of memory space. Successful use requires user action, such as opening a bad file or webpage. If used, a threat actor could execute code or disclose information.

A denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the Rockwell Automation ThinManager. The software fails to adequately verify the outcome of memory allocation while processing Type 18 messages. If exploited, a threat actor could cause a denial-of-service on the target software.

A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the Rockwell Automation ThinManager. When the software starts up, files are deleted in the temporary folder causing the Access Control Entry of the directory to inherit permissions from the parent directory. If exploited, a threat actor could inherit elevated privileges.

A local code execution vulnerability exists in the Rockwell Automation Arena®  due to an uninitialized pointer. The flaw is result of improper validation of user-supplied data. If exploited a threat actor can disclose information and execute arbitrary code on the system. To exploit the vulnerability a legitimate user must open a malicious DOE file.

Another “uninitialized variable” code execution vulnerability exists in the Rockwell Automation Arena® that could allow a threat actor to craft a DOE file and force the software to access a variable prior to it being initialized. If exploited, a threat actor could leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code. To exploit this vulnerability, a legitimate user must execute the malicious code crafted by the threat actor.

A remote code execution security issue exists in the Rockwell Automation Arena®.  A crafted DOE file can force Arena Simulation to write beyond the boundaries of an allocated object. Exploitation requires user interaction, such as opening a malicious file within the software. If exploited, a threat actor could execute arbitrary code on the target system. The software must run under the context of the administrator in order to cause worse case impact. This is reflected in the Rockwell CVSS score, ...
