In PHOENIX CONTACTs WP 6xxx series web panels in versions prior to 4.0.10 a remote attacker with low privileges may use a command injection in a HTTP POST request releated to font configuration operations to gain full access to the device.

Improper Input Validation vulnerability in PHOENIX CONTACT FL/TC MGUARD Family in multiple versions may allow UDP packets to bypass the filter rules and access the solely connected device behind the MGUARD which can be used for flooding attacks.

In Phoenix Contacts ENERGY AXC PU Web service an authenticated restricted user of the web frontend can access, read, write and create files throughout the file system using specially crafted URLs via the upload and download functionality of the web service. This may lead to full control of the service.

In PHOENIX CONTACT Automationworx Software Suite up to version 1.89 manipulated PC Worx or Config+ files could lead to a heap buffer overflow and a read access violation. Availability, integrity, or confidentiality of an application programming workstation might be compromised by attacks using these vulnerabilities.

In PHOENIX CONTACT Automationworx Software Suite up to version 1.89 memory can be read beyond the intended scope due to insufficient validation of input data. Availability, integrity, or confidentiality of an application programming workstation might be compromised by attacks using these vulnerabilities.

A remote, unauthenticated attacker could cause a denial-of-service of PHOENIX CONTACT FL MGUARD and TC MGUARD devices below version 8.9.0 by sending a larger number of unauthenticated HTTPS connections originating from different source IP’s. Configuring firewall limits for incoming connections cannot prevent the issue.

In Phoenix Contact: FL MGUARD DM version 1.12.0 and 1.13.0 access to the Apache web server being installed as part of the FL MGUARD DM on Microsoft Windows does not require login credentials even if configured during installation.Attackers with network access to the Apache web server can download and therefore read mGuard configuration profiles (“ATV profiles”). Such configuration profiles may contain sensitive information, e.g. private keys associated with IPsec VPN connections.

An unauthenticated, remote attacker could upload malicious logic to the devices based on ProConOS/ProConOS eCLR in order to gain full control over the device.

An unauthenticated, remote attacker could upload malicious logic to devices based on ProConOS/ProConOS eCLR in order to gain full control over the device.

On various RAD-ISM-900-EN-* devices by PHOENIX CONTACT an admin user could use the configuration file uploader in the WebUI to execute arbitrary code with root privileges on the OS due to an improper validation of an integrity check value in all versions of the firmware.

On various RAD-ISM-900-EN-* devices by PHOENIX CONTACT an admin user could use the traceroute utility integrated in the WebUI to execute arbitrary code with root privileges on the OS due to an improper input validation in all versions of the firmware.

In Phoenix Contact FL MGUARD 1102 and 1105 in Versions 1.4.0, 1.4.1 and 1.5.0 the remote logging functionality is impaired by the lack of memory release for data structures from syslog-ng when remote logging is active

In Phoenix Contact FL MGUARD 1102 and 1105 in Versions 1.4.0, 1.4.1 and 1.5.0 a user with high privileges can inject HTML code (XSS) through web-based management or the REST API with a manipulated certificate file.

Improper Input Validation vulnerability in PC Worx Automation Suite of Phoenix Contact up to version 1.88 could allow an attacker with a manipulated project file to unpack arbitrary files outside of the selected project directory.

Multiple Phoenix Contact PLCnext control devices in versions prior to 2021.0.5 LTS are prone to a DoS attack through special crafted JSON requests.

In PEPPERL+FUCHS WirelessHART-Gateway 3.0.7 to 3.0.9 the SSH and telnet services are active with hard-coded credentials.

Any cookie-stealing vulnerabilities within the application or browser would enable an attacker to steal the user's credentials to the PEPPERL+FUCHS WirelessHART-Gateway 3.0.9.

In PEPPERL+FUCHS WirelessHART-Gateway 3.0.8 and 3.0.9 the HttpOnly attribute is not set on a cookie. This allows the cookie's value to be read or set by client-side JavaScript.

In PEPPERL+FUCHS WirelessHART-Gateway 3.0.8 it is possible to inject arbitrary JavaScript into the application's response.

In PEPPERL+FUCHS WirelessHART-Gateway <= 3.0.8 serious issue exists, if the application is not externally accessible or uses IP-based access restrictions. Attackers can use DNS Rebinding to bypass any IP or firewall based access restrictions that may be in place, by proxying through their target's browser.

In PEPPERL+FUCHS WirelessHART-Gateway <= 3.0.9 a form contains a password field with autocomplete enabled. The stored credentials can be captured by an attacker who gains control over the user's computer. Therefore the user must have logged in at least once.

In PEPPERL+FUCHS WirelessHART-Gateway <= 3.0.8 a vulnerability may allow remote attackers to rewrite links and URLs in cached pages to arbitrary strings.

In PEPPERL+FUCHS WirelessHART-Gateway <= 3.0.7 the filename parameter is vulnerable to unauthenticated path traversal attacks, enabling read access to arbitrary files on the server.

Phoenix Contact Classic Automation Worx Software Suite in Version 1.87 and below is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability. Manipulated PC Worx or Config+ projects could lead to a remote code execution when unallocated memory is freed because of incompletely initialized data. The attacker needs to get access to an original bus configuration file (*.bcp) to be able to manipulate data inside. After manipulation the attacker needs to exchange the original file by the manipulated one on the application programming workstation. Availability, integrity, or confidentiality of an application programming workstation might be compromised by attacks using these vulnerabilities. Automated systems in operation which were programmed with one of the above-mentioned products are not affected.

Phoenix Contact Classic Line Controllers ILC1x0 and ILC1x1 in all versions/variants are affected by a Denial-of-Service vulnerability. The communication protocols and device access do not feature authentication measures. Remote attackers can use specially crafted IP packets to cause a denial of service on the PLC's network communication module. A successful attack stops all network communication. To restore the network connectivity the device needs to be restarted. The automation task is not affected.

In certain devices of the Phoenix Contact AXL F BK and IL BK product families an undocumented password protected FTP access to the root directory exists.

In Phoenix Contact FL SWITCH SMCS series products in multiple versions if an attacker sends a hand-crafted TCP-Packet with the Urgent-Flag set and the Urgent-Pointer set to 0, the network stack will crash. The device needs to be rebooted afterwards.

In Phoenix Contact FL SWITCH SMCS series products in multiple versions an attacker may insert malicious code via LLDP frames into the web-based management which could then be executed by the client.

In Phoenix Contact FL SWITCH SMCS series products in multiple versions fragmented TCP-Packets may cause a Denial of Service of Web-, SNMP- and ICMP-Echo services. The switching functionality of the device is not affected.

In Phoenix Contact FL COMSERVER UNI in versions < 2.40 a invalid Modbus exception response can lead to a temporary denial of service.

On Phoenix Contact mGuard Devices versions before 8.8.3 LAN ports get functional after reboot even if they are disabled in the device configuration. For mGuard devices with integrated switch on the LAN side, single switch ports can be disabled by device configuration. After a reboot these ports get functional independent from their configuration setting: Missing Initialization of Resource

On Phoenix Contact PLCnext Control Devices versions before 2021.0 LTS a specially crafted LLDP packet may lead to a high system load in the PROFINET stack. An attacker can cause failure of system services or a complete reboot.
