- Mitigationwago_psirt
As general security measures strongly WAGO recommends: Use general security best practices to protect systems from local and network attacks. Do not allow direct access to the device from untrusted networks. Update to the latest firmware according to the table in chapter solutions. Industrial control systems (ICS) should not be directly accessible from the Internet, but should be protected by consistently applying the defense-in-depth strategy. The BSI provides general information on securing ICS in the ICS Compendium (https://www.bsi.bund.de/SharedDocs/Downloads/EN/BSI/ICS/ICS-Security_compendium.pdf).
- Mitigationendress_hauser_psirt
If an immediate firmware update is not possible, the only way to prevent an attack is to prevent the access of the Web Based Management tool from the internet. This can be achieved by using a network element, such as a router, which hides and secures the components from the internet.
