CWE-798Published: February 13, 2024· Updated: Jun 17, 2026
Official Description
A vulnerability has been identified in Location Intelligence Perpetual Large (9DE5110-8CA13-1AX0) (All versions < V4.3), Location Intelligence Perpetual Medium (9DE5110-8CA12-1AX0) (All versions < V4.3), Location Intelligence Perpetual Non-Prod (9DE5110-8CA10-1AX0) (All versions < V4.3), Location Intelligence Perpetual Small (9DE5110-8CA11-1AX0) (All versions < V4.3), Location Intelligence SUS Large (9DE5110-8CA13-1BX0) (All versions < V4.3), Location Intelligence SUS Medium (9DE5110-8CA12-1BX0) (All versions < V4.3), Location Intelligence SUS Non-Prod (9DE5110-8CA10-1BX0) (All versions < V4.3), Location Intelligence SUS Small (9DE5110-8CA11-1BX0) (All versions < V4.3). Affected products use a hard-coded secret value for the computation of a Keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code. This could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to gain full administrative access to the application.
Risk Analysis
Siemens Location Intelligence products use a hard-coded secret for HMAC computation. This critical flaw allows an attacker to compromise the integrity and confidentiality of the system. Given the CVSS score of 9.8, this is a high-priority issue.
There is no public exploit known for this vulnerability, and it is not in CISA's KEV catalog. The flaw is remotely exploitable with low attack complexity.
Upgrade all affected Location Intelligence products to version V4.3 or later.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2024-23816 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 9.8.
