Siemens SICAM P850 and SICAM P855 Authentication Bypass By Capture-Replay (CVE-2022-29878)

high Tenable OT Security Plugin ID 501124

Synopsis

The remote OT asset is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

A vulnerability has been identified in SICAM P850 (All versions < V3.00), SICAM P855 (All versions < V3.00). Affected devices use a limited range for challenges that are sent during the unencrypted challenge-response communication. An unauthenticated attacker could capture a valid challenge-response pair generated by a legitimate user, and request the webpage repeatedly to wait for the same challenge to reappear for which the correct response is known. This could allow the attacker to access the management interface of the device.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.

Solution

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

Siemens has recommended the following:

- Update SICAM P850 to Version 3.0 or later
- Update SICAM P855 to Version 3.0 or later
- Do not access links from untrusted sources while logged in to SICAM P850 or SICAM P855 devices

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.
