Mitigation If immediate update is not possible, Johnson Controls recommends the following mitigations: Enable and enforce HTTPS/TLS for all web-based management access to the device. Disable HTTP access entirely. Place devices on an isolated, segmented network behind a firewall to limit exposure of management interfaces. Use a VPN when accessing devices remotely to encrypt all traffic in transit. Monitor network traffic for unencrypted sensitive data leaving the management interface. Restrict network access to management interfaces using access control lists (ACLs) to only trusted hosts. Refer to and follow all steps in the product hardening guide or the JCI universal hardening guide found here: https://www.johnsoncontrols.com/trust-center/cybersecurity/resources . These mitigations reduce risk but may not fully remediate the vulnerability. Users should update to the fixed versions when operationally feasible. Mitigation Users should review logs, network telemetry, device events, and security monitoring tools for activity involving EasyIO NEO versions EC and CW. Relevant detection information may include: Unencrypted HTTP traffic to or from the device management interface on port 80. Network captures showing cleartext credentials or session tokens in HTTP requests. Unexpected devices or IP addresses accessing the web management console. ARP spoofing or other man-in-the-middle indicators on the local network segment. Unauthorized configuration changes that may indicate credential interception. Mitigation The recommendations provided within Johnson Controls Hardening Guide should always be applied to minimize security risk.

Armatura LLC Armatura One

View CSAF Summary Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access to the database, execute arbitrary code on the host with the highest level of privilege, or gain control of the physical access-control system. The following versions of Armatura LLC Armatura One are affected: Armatura One Armatura One (USA) CVSS Vendor Equipment Vulnerabilities v3 9.8 Armatura LLC Armatura LLC Armatura One Deserialization of Untrusted Data, Use of Hard-coded Cryptographic Key, Use of Hard-coded Credentials, Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File Background Critical Infrastructure Sectors: Communications, Critical Manufacturing, Energy, Transportation Systems Countries/Areas Deployed: Worldwide Company Headquarters Location: United States Vulnerabilities Expand All + CVE-2023-46604 Armatura One embeds Apache ActiveMQ, exposing its OpenWire protocol listener on the network by default. This embedded version is affected by CVE-2023-46604, a deserialization flaw in the OpenWire marshaller that allows an unauthenticated network attacker to trigger deserialization of an arbitrary object graph before authentication is checked. This can result in arbitrary code execution with the highest level of privilege on the host operating system.

The encryption key and initialization vector are fixed values embedded in the software itself and are identical across every installation. An attacker with a copy of the installation package can recover this key and initialization vector, and can then decrypt the stored credentials of any specific installation to which the attacker separately obtains the encrypted configuration file.

Recommended Practices CISA recommends users take defensive measures to minimize the risk of exploitation of these vulnerabilities. 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. CISA also provides a section for control systems security recommended practices on the ICS webpage on cisa.gov. Several CISA products detailing cyber defense best practices are available for reading and download, including Improving Industrial Control Systems Cybersecurity with Defense-in-Depth Strategies. CISA encourages organizations to implement recommended cybersecurity strategies for proactive defense of ICS assets. Additional mitigation guidance and recommended practices are publicly available on the ICS webpage at cisa.gov in the technical information paper, ICS-TIP-12-146-01B--Targeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation Strategies. Organizations observing suspected malicious activity should follow established internal procedures and report findings to CISA for tracking and correlation against other incidents. CISA also recommends users take the following measures to protect themselves from social engineering attacks: Do not click web links or open attachments in unsolicited email messages. Refer to Recognizing and Avoiding Email Scams for more information on avoiding email scams. Refer to Avoiding Social Engineering and Phishing Attacks for more information on social engineering attacks. CISA is not aware of exploitation specifically targeting Armatura One in relation to these vulnerabilities. CVE-2023-46604 is listed in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog and has been used in ransomware campaigns against other Apache ActiveMQ deployments.
