The vulnerabilities of the microprogramming software for Siemens STEP 7 programmable logic controllers, the systems for managing production processes such as Opcenter Execution Discrete, Opcenter Execution Process, Opcenter Execution Foundation, Opcenter Intelligence, Opcenter Quality, SIMATIC IT Production Suite, the system diagnostic tool SIMOCODE ES, the software for parameterizing, diagnosing, and documenting the startup process of SIRIUS Soft Starter ES, the web-based systems for managing technological processes like SIMATIC PCS neo, the Opcenter RD&L software platform, and the software for analyzing equipment efficiency and key indicators like SIMATIC IT LMS. These vulnerabilities arise from the absence of quotation marks in the wording of elements or search methods, which allows attackers to exploit them to gain elevated privileges to the root level.
