  • SSA-770721SSA-770721: Multiple Vulnerabilities in SIMATIC RF160B before V2.22024-03-12csaf · siemens_psirtDE

    SIMATIC RF160B contain multiple vulnerabilities of different types that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code within the context of a privileged process. Siemens has released a new version for SIMATIC RF160B and recommends to update to the latest version.

  • ICSA-24-074-07Siemens SIMATIC2024-03-14icsa · cisa_csaf_otUS

    Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code within the context of a privileged process.

  • ASB-A-1751930312021-08-01vendor · osvUS

    In futex_setup_timer and related functions of futex.c, there is a possible way to corrupt kernel memory due to a use after free. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
