MITIGATIONS Schneider Electric has identified the following specific workarounds and mitigations users can apply to reduce risk: BMXNOR0200H: Version SV1.70IR26 of BMXNOR0200H includes a fix for this vulnerability and is available for download. Users should use appropriate patching methodologies when applying these patches to their systems. Schneider Electric strongly recommends the use of back-ups and evaluating the impact of these patches in a testing and development environment, or on an offline infrastructure. Contact Schneider Electric's Customer Care Center for assistance removing a patch. Schneider Electric is establishing a remediation plan for all future versions of Modicon M340 processors BMXP34*, BMXNOE0100 and BMXNOE0110 that will include a fix for this vulnerability. They will provide an update when the remediation is available. Until then, users should immediately apply the following mitigations to reduce the risk of exploit: Set up network segmentation and implement a firewall to block all unauthorized access to FTP Port 21/TCP on the devices. Disable FTP service via EcoStruxureTM Control Expert. This is disabled by default when a new application is created. Disable Web server service via EcoStruxureTM Control Expert. This is disabled by default when a new application is created. Configure the Access Control List following the recommendation on the "Modicon Controllers System Cybersecurity" Schneider Electric strongly recommends the following industry cybersecurity best practices. Locate control and safety system networks and remote devices behind firewalls and isolate them from the business network. Install physical controls so no unauthorized personnel can access your industrial control and safety systems, components, peripheral equipment, and networks. Place all controllers in locked cabinets and never leave them in the "Program" mode. Never connect programming software to any network other than the network intended for that device. Scan all methods of mobile data exchange with the isolated network such as CDs, USB drives, etc. before use in the terminals or any node connected to these networks. Never allow mobile devices that have connected to any other network besides the intended network to connect to the safety or control networks without proper sanitation. Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and systems and ensure that they are not accessible from the Internet. When remote access is required, use secure methods, such as virtual private networks (VPNs). Recognize that VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should be updated to the most current version available. Also, understand that VPNs are only as secure as the connected devices. For more information refer to the Schneider Electric Recommended Cybersecurity Best Practices document.

CISA—in partnership with international and U.S. organizations—released guidance to help organizations protect their network edge devices and appliances, such as firewalls, routers, virtual private networks (VPN) gateways, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, internet-facing servers, and internet-facing operational technology (OT) systems. The published guidance is as follows: “Security Considerations for Edge Devices,” led by the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security (CCCS), a part of the Communications Security Establishment Canada. “Digital Forensics Monitoring Specifications for Products of Network Devices and Applications,” led by the United Kingdom’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC-UK). “Mitigation Strategies for Edge Devices: Executive Guidance” and “Mitigation Strategies for Edge Devices: Practitioner Guidance,” two separate guides led by the Australian Signals Directorate’s Australian Cyber Security Centre (ASD’s ACSC). Foreign adversaries routinely exploit software vulnerabilities in network edge devices to infiltrate critical infrastructure networks and systems. The damage can be expensive, time-consuming, and reputationally catastrophic for public and private sector organizations. These guidance documents detail various considerations and strategies for a more secure and resilient network both before and after a compromise. CISA and partner agencies urge device manufacturers and critical infrastructure owners and operators to review and implement the recommended actions and mitigations in the publications. Device manufacturers, please visit CISA’s Secure by Design page for more information on how to align development processes with the goal of reducing the prevalence of vulnerabilities in devices. Critical infrastructure owners and operators, please see Secure by Demand: Priority Considerations for Operational Technology Owners and Operators when Selecting Digital Products for guidance on procuring secure products.

MITIGATIONS AutomationDirect recommends that users update C-MORE EA9 HMI software and firmware to V6.80. If an immediate update is not feasible, AutomationDirect recommends considering the following interim steps until the programming software can be updated: Isolate the HMI Workstation: Disconnect the HMI from external networks (e.g., internet or corporate LAN) to limit exposure to external threats. Use dedicated, secure internal networks or air-gapped systems for communication with programmable devices. Control Access: Restrict physical and logical access to the HMI to authorized personnel only. Implement Whitelisting: Use application whitelisting to allow only pre-approved and trusted software to execute on the HMI. Block untrusted or unauthorized applications. Apply Endpoint Security Measures: Use antivirus or endpoint detection and response (EDR) tools to monitor for and mitigate threats. Ensure that host-based firewalls are properly configured to block unauthorized access. Monitor and Log Activity: Enable logging and monitoring of system activities to detect potential anomalies or unauthorized actions. Regularly review logs for suspicious activity. Use Secure Backup and Recovery: Regularly back up the workstation and its configurations to a secure location. Test recovery procedures to ensure minimal downtime in the event of an incident. Conduct Regular Risk Assessments: Continuously assess the risks posed by the outdated software and adjust mitigation measures as necessary. For more information, please see the AutomationDirect security advisory.
