Release Date
July 13, 2023
Alert Code
ICSA-23-194-05



1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

 * CVSS v3 8.8
 * ATTENTION: Exploitable remotely/low attack complexity
 * Vendor: Rockwell Automation
 * Equipment: PowerMonitor 1000
 * Vulnerability: Cross-site Scripting


2. RISK EVALUATION

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to achieve
remote code execution and potentially the complete loss of confidentiality,
integrity, and availability of the product.


3. TECHNICAL DETAILS


3.1 AFFECTED PRODUCTS

The following versions of Rockwell Automation PowerMonitor 1000 are affected: 

 * PowerMonitor 1000: V4.011


3.2 VULNERABILITY OVERVIEW

3.2.1 IMPROPER NEUTRALIZATION OF INPUT DURING WEB PAGE GENERATION ('CROSS-SITE
SCRIPTING') CWE-79(link is external)

The PowerMonitor 1000 contains stored cross site scripting vulnerabilities
within the web page of the product. The vulnerable pages do not require
privileges to access and can be injected with code by an attacker which could be
used to leverage an attacker on an authenticated user resulting in remote code
execution and potentially the complete loss of confidentiality, integrity, and
availability of the product.

CVE-2023-2072 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3 base score of
8.8 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is
(AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H(link is external)).


3.3 BACKGROUND

 * CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE SECTORS: Critical Manufacturing
 * COUNTRIES/AREAS DEPLOYED: Worldwide
 * COMPANY HEADQUARTERS LOCATION: United States


3.4 RESEARCHER

Rockwell Automation reported this vulnerability to CISA.


4. MITIGATIONS

Rockwell Automation has released the following mitigations and workarounds.
Customers using the affected software are encouraged to apply the risk
mitigation below, if possible. Additionally, we encourage customers to implement
our suggested security best practices to minimize the potential risk of the
vulnerability.

 * Upgrade to V4.019(link is external) which has been patched to mitigate these
   issues.
 * Rockwell Automation encourages users to implement their suggested security
   best practices(link is external) to minimize risk of the vulnerability.

For more information, see Rockwell Automation’s Security Advisory(link is
external).

CISA recommends users take defensive measures to minimize the risk of
exploitation of this vulnerability. Specifically, users should:

 * Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems, and
   ensure they are not accessible from the Internet.
 * Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls and
   isolate them from business networks.
 * When remote access is required, use secure methods, such as virtual private
   networks (VPNs), recognizing VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should be
   updated to the most current version available. Also recognize VPN is only as
   secure as its connected devices.

CISA reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk assessment
prior to deploying defensive measures.

CISA also provides a section for control systems security recommended practices
on the ICS webpage at cisa.gov/ics. Several CISA products detailing cyber
defense best practices are available for reading and download, including
Improving Industrial Control Systems Cybersecurity with Defense-in-Depth
Strategies.

Additional mitigation guidance and recommended practices are publicly available
on the ICS webpage at cisa.gov/ics in the technical information paper,
ICS-TIP-12-146-01B--Targeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation
Strategies.

Organizations observing suspected malicious activity should follow established
internal procedures and report findings to CISA for tracking and correlation
against other incidents.

CISA also recommends users take the following measures to protect themselves
from social engineering attacks:

 * Do not click web links or open attachments in unsolicited email messages.
 * Refer to Recognizing and Avoiding Email Scams for more information on
   avoiding email scams.
 * Refer to Avoiding Social Engineering and Phishing Attacks for more
   information on social engineering attacks.

No known public exploits specifically target this vulnerability.
