Rockwell Automation FactoryTalk and RSLinx Vulnerabilities (Update A) | ICS-CERT
Advisory (ICSA-13-095-02A)
Rockwell Automation FactoryTalk and RSLinx Vulnerabilities (Update A)
Original release date: October 07, 2013 | Last revised: December 17, 2013
--------- Begin Update A Part 1 of 4 --------
This updated advisory is a follow-up to the original advisory titled ICSA-13-095-02 Rockwell Automation FactoryTalk and RSLinx Vulnerabilities that was published April 5, 2013, on the ICS-CERT Web page.
--------- End Update A Part 1 of 4 ----------
Researcher Carsten Eiram of Risk Based Security has identified multiple input validation vulnerabilities in Rockwell Automation’s FactoryTalk Services Platform (RNADiagnostics.dll) and RSLinx Enterprise Software (LogReceiver.exe and Logger.dll). Rockwell Automation has produced patches that mitigate these vulnerabilities, and released the patches April 5, 2013. Rockwell Automation has tested the patches to validate that they resolve the vulnerabilities.
--------- Begin Update A Part 2 of 4 --------
Carsten Eiram discovered additional vulnerabilities after the patches were released in April, and Rockwell released new patches that mitigate the additional vulnerabilities on June 28, 2013.
--------- End Update A Part 2 of 4 ----------
The following FactoryTalk Services Platform and RSLinx Enterprise product versions are affected:
CPR9,
CPR9-SR1,
CPR9-SR2,
CPR9-SR3,
CPR9-SR4,
CPR9-SR5,
CPR9-SR5.1, and
CPR9-SR6.
Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities may result in a DoS condition to the services, service termination, and the potential for code injection.
Rockwell Automation provides industrial automation control and information products worldwide, across a wide range of industries.
FactoryTalk Services Platform (FTSP) shares data throughout a distributed system and enforces redundancy and fault tolerance while tracking changes in the system.
RSLinx Enterprise is used for design and configuration, which provides plant-floor device connectivity for multiple Rockwell software applications. This software also has open interfaces for third-party human-machine interfaces (HMIs), data collection and analysis packages, as well as custom client-applications.
According to Rockwell Automation, both products are deployed across several sectors including agriculture and food, water, chemical, manufacturing, and others. The Rockwell product Web site states that these products are used in France, Italy, the Netherlands, and other countries in Europe, as well as the United States, Korea, China, Japan, and Latin American countries.
INTEGER OVERFLOW–NEGATIVE INTEGERa
The FactoryTalk Services Platform (RNADiagnostics.dll) does not validate input correctly and cannot allocate a negative integer. By sending a negative integer input to the service over Port 4445/UDP, an attacker could cause a DoS condition that prevents subsequent processing of connections. An attacker could possibly cause the RNADiagnostics.dll or RNADiagReceiver.exe service to terminate.
CVE-2012-4713b has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v2 base score of 7.8 has been assigned; the CVSS vector string is (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C).c
INTEGER OVERFLOW–OVERSIZED INTEGERa
The FactoryTalk Services Platform (RNADiagnostics.dll) does not handle input correctly and cannot allocate an over-sized integer. By sending an over-sized integer input to the service over Port 4445/UDP, an attacker could cause a DoS condition that prevents subsequent processing of connections. An attacker could possibly cause the service to terminate.
CVE-2012-4714d has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v2 base score of 7.8 has been assigned; the CVSS vector string is (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C).e
--------- Begin Update A Part 3 of 4 --------
IMPROPER EXCEPTION HANDLINGf
The RSLinx Enterprise Software (LogReceiver.exe and Logger.dll) does not handle input correctly and results in a logic error if it receives a zero or large byte datagram. If an attacker sends a datagram of zero byte size to the receiver over Port 4444/UDP (user-configurable, not enabled by default), the attacker would cause a DoS condition where the service silently ignores further incoming requests.
After discussion with the researcher and vendor, this vulnerability was a duplicate of CVE-2012-4715, and therefore the two vulnerabilities have been combined. CVE-2012-4715 will be retracted from the NVD Web site.
CVE-2012-4695g has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v2 base score of 7.8 has been assigned; the CVSS vector string is (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C).h
--------- End Update A Part 3 of 4 ----------
--------- Begin Update A Part 4 of 4 --------
OUT-OF-BOUNDS READi
The RSLinx Enterprise Software (LogReceiver.exe) does not handle input correctly and results in a logic error if it receives a datagram with an incorrect value in the “Record Data Size” field. By sending a datagram to the service over Port 4444/UDP with the “Record Data Size” field modified to an oversized value, an attacker could cause an out-of-bounds read access violation that leads to a service crash. The service can be recovered with a manual reboot.
CVE-2013-2805j has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v2 base score of 7.8 has been assigned; the CVSS vector string is (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C).k
INTEGER OVERFLOWl
The RSLinx Enterprise Software (LogReceiver.exe) does not handle input correctly and results in a logic error if it calculates an incorrect value for the “Total Record Size” field. By sending a datagram to the service over Port 4444/UDP with the “Record Data Size” field modified to a specifically oversized value, the service will calculate an undersized value for the “Total Record Size” that will cause an out-of-bounds read access violation that leads to a service crash. The service can be recovered with a manual reboot.
CVE-2013-2807m has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v2 base score of 7.8 has been assigned; the CVSS vector string is (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C).n
INTEGER OVERFLOWo
The RSLinx Enterprise Software (LogReceiver.exe) does not handle input correctly and results in a logic error if it calculates an incorrect value for the “End of Current Record” field. By sending a datagram to the service over Port 4444/UDP with the “Record Data Size” field modified to a specifically oversized value, the service will calculate an undersized value for the “Total Record Size.” Then the service will calculate an incorrect value for the “End of Current Record” field causing access violations that lead to a service crash. The service can be recovered with a manual reboot.
CVE-2013-2806p has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v2 base score of 7.8 has been assigned; the CVSS vector string is (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C).q
