Affected devices do not use sufficiently random values to create session identifiers. This could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to brute force a session identifier and gain read access to limited information from the web server without authorization.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2024-54017 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.

News & Research Mentioning CVE-2024-54017
View CSAF Summary The SIPROTEC 5 devices do not use sufficiently random numbers to generate session identifiers. This could facilitate a brute-force attack against a valid session identifier which could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to hijack a valid user session. The affected session identifiers are only used in a subset of the endpoints that are provided by the affected products. Siemens is preparing fix versions and recommends countermeasures for products where fixes are not, or not yet available.
