4. MITIGATIONS
WAGO released a security advisory available at:
https://www.wago.com/de/download/public/Sicherheitshinweis-SA-SYS-2019-001/
SA-SYS-2019-001.pdf
WAGO recommends updating to the newest firmware as listed above and taking the
following defensive measures:
o Restrict network access to the web server.
o Restrict network access to the device.
o Do not directly connect the device to the Internet.
CERT@VDE has published an advisory regarding this vulnerability at the
following location:
https://cert.vde.com/en-us/advisories/vde-2019-008
NCCIC recommends users take defensive measures to minimize the risk of
exploitation of this vulnerability. Specifically, users should:
o Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems,
and ensure that they are not accessible from the Internet .
o Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls, and
isolate them from the business network.
o When remote access is required, use secure methods, such as Virtual Private
Networks (VPNs), recognizing that VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should
be updated to the most current version available. Also recognize that VPN
is only as secure as the connected devices.
NCCIC reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk
assessment prior to deploying defensive measures.
NCCIC also provides a section for control systems security recommended
practices on the ICS-CERT web page. Several recommended 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-CERT website in the Technical Information Paper,
ICS-TIP-12-146-01B--Targeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation
Strategies .
Organizations observing any suspected malicious activity should follow their
established internal procedures and report their findings to NCCIC for tracking
and correlation against other incidents.
No known public exploits specifically target this vulnerability.
