Solution

The following text was originally created by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). The original can be found at CISA.gov.

Siemens recommends updating to the latest version of its software if available:

- The products listed are only affected up to v5.2.6. Update to v5.2.6 or later

Siemens has identified the following specific workarounds and mitigations that customers can implement to reduce exploitation risk:

- Restrict access to the affected systems, especially on port 80/TCP and port 443/TCP, to trusted IP addresses
- Deactivate the webserver if not required and if deactivation is supported by the product

As a general security measure, Siemens recommends protecting network access to devices with appropriate mechanisms. To operate the devices in a protected IT environment, Siemens recommends configuring the environment according to Siemens’ Operational Guidelines for Industrial Security and following recommendations in the product manuals.
