MitigationMultiple SIMATIC HMI panels (TP, OP, MP, Comfort Panels, Mobile Panels)cisa_csaf_ot
Lack of telnet daemon authentication - Because telnet is a clear text protocol, customers are advised to be aware of corresponding risks. The telnet daemon is disabled by default in product versions WinCC flexible 2008 SP3 and newer, as well as WinCC V11 (TIA Portal) SP2 and newer. Siemens recommends disabling the telnet function on SIMATIC panels when telnet is not actively being used.
