Siemens has released updates for several affected products and recommends updating to the latest versions. Siemens is
preparing further updates and recommends specific countermeasures for products where updates are not, or not yet,
available:

- SIMATIC CP 443-1 (6GK7443-1EX30-0XE0): Update to V3.3 or later version 
- SIMATIC CP 443-1 (6GK7443-1EX30-0XE1): Update to V3.3 or later version 
- SIMATIC CP 443-1 Advanced (6GK7443-1GX30-0XE0): Update to V3.3 or later version 
- SIPLUS TIM 1531 IRC (6AG1543-1MX00-7XE0): Update to V2.3.6 or later version 
- TIM 1531 IRC (6GK7543-1MX00-0XE0): Update to V2.3.6 or later version

Siemens has identified the following specific workarounds and mitigations users can apply to reduce risk: 

- Restrict access to the web interface of the affected products—if deactivation unsupported by the product. 
- Deactivate the webserver if not required and if deactivation is supported by the product.

As a general security measure, Siemens strongly recommends protecting network access to devices with appropriate
mechanisms. To operate the devices in a protected IT environment, Siemens recommends configuring the environment
according to Siemens' Operational Guidelines for Industrial Security and to follow the recommendations in the product
manuals. Additional information on Industrial Security by Siemens can be found on the Siemens webpage for Industrial
Security.

For further inquiries on security vulnerabilities in Siemens’ products and solutions, users should contact the Siemens
ProductCERT.
