ID CVE-2019-13930 Type cve Reporter cve@mitre.org Modified 2019-12-19T14:38:00
Description
A vulnerability has been identified in XHQ (All versions < V6.0.0.2). The web interface could allow a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attack if an unsuspecting user is tricked into accessing a malicious link. Successful exploitation requires user interaction by a legitimate user, who must be authenticated to the web interface. A successful attack could allow an attacker to trigger actions via the web interface that the legitimate user is allowed to perform. This could allow the attacker to read or modify contents of the web application. At the time of advisory publication no public exploitation of this security vulnerability was known.

MITIGATIONS\n\nSiemens recommends users update XHQ Operations Intelligence product line to v6.0.0.2 or later. To obtain the most recent version, please contact the [local service organization](<https://w3.siemens.com/aspa_app/>).\n\nSiemens has identified the following specific workarounds and mitigations users can apply to reduce the risk:\n\n * Follow the XHQ documentation to implement a secure IIS configuration.\n * Allow only HTTPS communications to XHQ.\n\nAs a general security measure, Siemens strongly recommends users protect network access to devices with appropriate mechanisms. In order to operate the devices in a protected IT environment, Siemens recommends users configure the environment according to [Siemens\u2019 operational guidelines for industrial security](<https://www.siemens.com/cert/operational-guidelines-industrial-security>), and follow the recommendations in the product manuals. Additional information on Industrial Security by Siemens can be found at:\n\n<https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity>\n\nFor more information on these vulnerabilities and more detailed mitigation instructions, please see Siemens security advisory SSA-525454 at the following location:\n\n<http://www.siemens.com/cert/advisories>\n\nCISA recommends users take defensive measures to minimize the risk of exploitation of this vulnerability. Specifically, users should:\n\n * Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems, and ensure that they are [not accessible from the Internet](<https://www.us-cert.gov/ics/alerts/ICS-ALERT-10-301-01>).\n * Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls, and isolate them from the business network.\n * 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.\n\nCISA reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk assessment prior to deploying defensive measures. \n \nCISA also provides a section for [control systems security recommended practices](<https://www.us-cert.gov/ics/recommended-practices>) on the ICS webpage on [us-cert.gov](<https://www.us-cert.gov/ics>). Several recommended practices are available for reading and download, including [Improving Industrial Control Systems Cybersecurity with Defense-in-Depth Strategies](<https://www.us-cert.gov/sites/default/files/recommended_practices/NCCIC_ICS-CERT_Defense_in_Depth_2016_S508C.pdf>).\n\nAdditional mitigation guidance and recommended practices are publicly available on the [ICS webpage on us-cert.gov](<https://www.us-cert.gov/ics>) in the Technical Information Paper, [ICS-TIP-12-146-01B--Targeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation Strategies](<https://www.us-cert.gov/ics/tips/ICS-TIP-12-146-01B>). \n \nOrganizations observing any suspected malicious activity should follow their established internal procedures and report their findings to CISA for tracking and correlation against other incidents.\n\nCISA also recommends users take the following measures to protect themselves from social engineering attacks:\n\n * Do not click web links or open unsolicited attachments in email messages.\n * Refer to [Recognizing and Avoiding Email Scams](<https://www.us-cert.gov/sites/default/files/publications/emailscams_0905.pdf>) for more information on avoiding email scams.\n * Refer to [Avoiding Social Engineering and Phishing Attacks](<https://www.us-cert.gov/ncas/tips/ST04-014>) for more information on social engineering attacks\n\nNo known public exploits specifically target these vulnerabilities.\n\n## \nContact Information\n\nFor any questions related to this report, please contact the CISA at: \n \nEmail: [CISAservicedesk@cisa.dhs.gov](<mailto:cisaservicedesk@cisa.dhs.gov>) \nToll Free: 1-888-282-0870\n\nFor industrial control systems cybersecurity information: https://us-cert.cisa.gov/ics \nor incident reporting: https://us-cert.cisa.gov/report\n\nCISA continuously strives to improve its products and services.
