Vendor: Mitsubishi Electric Europe B.V.
Equipment: E-Designer
Vulnerabilities: Heap-Based Buffer Overflow, Stack-Based Buffer Overflow, Out-of-Bounds Write
The following version of E-Designer, a Mitsubishi Electric Europe B.V. product to program HMIs for E1000 products, is affected:
Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities can result in corruption of sensitive information, system crash, denial of service, and arbitrary code execution.
Mitsubishi recommends the following actions to mitigate these vulnerabilities:
NCCIC/ICS-CERT recommends that users take defensive measures to minimize the risk of exploitation of these vulnerabilities. Specifically, users should:
ICS-CERT reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk assessment prior to deploying defensive measures.
ICS-CERT 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 in the ICSโCERT Technical Information Paper, ICS-TIP-12-146-01BโTargeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation Strategies, that is available for download from the ICS-CERT web site.
Organizations observing any suspected malicious activity should follow their established internal procedures and report their findings to ICS-CERT for tracking and correlation against other incidents.
Six code sections have been identified in which exploiting this vulnerability can overwrite the stack. This can result in arbitrary code execution, compromised data integrity, denial of service, and system crash.
CVE-2017-9638 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3 base score of 9.8 has been assigned; the CVSS vector string is (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
Five code sections have been identified in which exploiting this vulnerability can overwrite the heap. This can result in arbitrary code execution, compromised data integrity, denial of service, and system crash.
CVE-2017-9636 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3 base score of 9.8 has been assigned; the CVSS vector string is (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
Two code sections have been identified in which exploiting this vulnerability can allow a remote attacker to write data to arbitrary memory locations. This can result in arbitrary code execution, compromised data integrity, denial of service, and system crash.
CVE-2017-9634 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3 base score of 9.8 has been assigned; the CVSS vector string is (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
