CVE-2024-54092

CVSS 9.3 CRITICALEPSS 0.7%CWE-1390

In short

Industrial Edge devices fail to properly verify user identity on certain API endpoints when using identity federation, allowing attackers to bypass authentication and pretend to be legitimate users without valid credentials.

Technical detail

CWE-1390 (Improper Enforcement of Authentication) in Industrial Edge Device Kit and related products: unauthenticated API endpoints fail to validate user credentials when identity federation is enabled, permitting remote attackers to bypass authentication mechanisms and impersonate authorized users. Attack vector is network-based with no user interaction required.

Summary generated and translated by AI from the official description.

A vulnerability has been identified in Industrial Edge Device Kit - arm64 V1.17 (All versions), Industrial Edge Device Kit - arm64 V1.18 (All versions), Industrial Edge Device Kit - arm64 V1.19 (All versions), Industrial Edge Device Kit - arm64 V1.20 (All versions < V1.20.2-1), Industrial Edge Device Kit - arm64 V1.21 (All versions < V1.21.1-1), Industrial Edge Device Kit - x86-64 V1.17 (All versions), Industrial Edge Device Kit - x86-64 V1.18 (All versions), Industrial Edge Device Kit - x86-64 V1.19 (All versions), Industrial Edge Device Kit - x86-64 V1.20 (All versions < V1.20.2-1), Industrial Edge Device Kit - x86-64 V1.21 (All versions < V1.21.1-1), Industrial Edge Own Device (IEOD) (All versions < V1.21.1-1-a), Industrial Edge Virtual Device (All versions < V1.21.1-1-a), SCALANCE LPE9413 (6GK5998-3GS01-2AC2) (All versions < V2.1), SIMATIC IPC BX-39A Industrial Edge Device (All versions < V3.0), SIMATIC IPC BX-59A Industrial Edge Device (All versions < V3.0), SIMATIC IPC127E Industrial Edge Device (All versions < V3.0), SIMATIC IPC227E Industrial Edge Device (All versions < V3.0), SIMATIC IPC427E Industrial Edge Device (All versions < V3.0), SIMATIC IPC847E Industrial Edge Device (All versions < V3.0). Affected devices do not properly enforce user authentication on specific API endpoints when identity federation is used. This could facilitate an unauthenticated remote attacker to circumvent authentication and impersonate a legitimate user. Successful exploitation requires that identity federation is currently or has previously been used and the attacker has learned the identity of a legitimate user.
