Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in the additional GNU/Linux subsystem of the firmware version >= V3.1.0 and < V3.1.5 for the SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU 1518(F)-4 PN/DP MFP (incl. SIPLUS variant). These GNU/Linux vulnerabilities have been externally identified. Siemens has released new versions for the affected products and recommends to update to the latest versions. SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU 1518(F)-4 PN/DP MFP >= V3.1.0 and < V3.1.5 are no longer maintained and there won't be any update to the CVE list anymore. Please update to the latest version. Note: This SSA advises vulnerabilities for firmware version V3.1 only; for versions < V3.1 refer to Siemens Security Bulletin SSB-439005 (https://cert-portal.siemens.com/productcert/html/ssb-439005.html).

PLCnext Control AXC F x152 is certified according to IEC 62443-4-1 and IEC 62443-4-2. This certification requires that all third-party components used in the firmware are regularly checked for known vulnerabilities. Firmware components in version 2021.06 had already been updated. For the 2022.0 LTS version more firmware components have been updated implicitly fixing the vulnerabilities listed. The vulnerabilities listed above have not been individually verified in terms of actual impact and/or limitations in combination with the affected products listed. The current LTS release 2022.0 LTS contains updates of integrated third-party libraries, SDKs and other third-party software to address these issues nevertheless. UPDATE A (April 4th, 2022): Added RFC 4072 (Art. No. 1051328) and fixed affected version of AXC F 3152
