ABB has identified specific workarounds and mitigations users can apply to reduce risk and recommends users to perform the following actions on any released SW version of ASPECT:

  • Stop and disconnect any ASPECT products that are exposed directly to the Internet, either via a direct ISP connection or via NAT port forwarding.
  • Ensure that physical controls are in place, so no unauthorized personnel can access your devices, components, peripheral equipment, and networks.
  • Ensure log-files, downloaded from the equipment is protected against unauthorized access.
  • Ensure that all ASPECT products are upgraded to the latest firmware version. Please find the latest version of ASPECT firmware on the respective product homepage.
  • When remote access is required, only use secure methods. If a Virtual Private Network (VPN) is used, ensure that the chosen VPN is secure i.e. updated to the most current version available and configured for secure access.

For more information, please refer to ABB’s cybersecurity advisory 9AKK108470A6775.

CISA recommends users take defensive measures to minimize the risk of exploitation of this vulnerability, such as:

  • Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems, ensuring they are not accessible from the Internet.
  • Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls and isolating them from business networks.
  • When remote access is required, use more secure methods, such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). Recognize VPNs may have vulnerabilities, should be updated to the most recent version available, and are only as secure as the connected devices.

CISA reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk assessment prior to deploying defensive measures.

4. MITIGATIONS

ABB recommends that users update to firmware version 9.3.5.

ABB recommends that users immediately do the following actions on any released version of FLXEON:

  • Stop and disconnect any FLXEON products that are exposed directly to the Internet, either via a direct ISP connection or via NAT port forwarding.
  • Ensure that physical controls are in place, so no unauthorized personnel can access your devices, components, peripheral equipment, and networks.
  • Ensure that all FLXEON products are upgraded to the latest firmware version (9.3.5 or above). Please find the latest version of FLXEON firmware on the respective product homepage.
  • When remote access is required, only use secure methods. If a virtual private network (VPN) is used, ensure that the chosen VPN is secure i.e. updated to the most current version available and configured for secure access.

For more information, please refer to ABB’s cybersecurity advisory 9AKK108470A5684.

ABB states that these vulnerabilities are only exploitable if attackers can access the network segment where FLXEON is installed and exposed directly to the internet. ABB therefore recommends the following guidelines in order to protect users networks:

  • FLXEON devices should never be exposed directly to the Internet either via a direct ISP connection nor via NAT port forwarding. If remote access to a FLXEON system is a user requirement, the system shall operate behind a firewall. Users accessing FLXEON remotely shall do this using a VPN gateway allowing access to the particular network segment where FLXEON is in stalled and configured.
  • It is crucial that the VPN gateway and network are set up in accordance with best industry standards and maintained in terms of security patches for all related components.
  • Change default passwords if they are still in use.
  • Ensure that all FLXEON products are upgraded to the latest firmware version. Please find the latest version of FLXEON firmware on the respective product homepage.
