- MitigationArctic Wireless Gateway ARC600 with Telit PLS62-W wireless modem module.abb_psirt
The following mitigations can be considered • Obtain a private cellular access point to limit impact of any potential exploit. Contact your cellular provider for availability. • Mitigate the cellular module vulnerabilities by contacting the mobile network operator and requesting to disable binary SMS for your mobile subscription. o Note that binary SMS service is often disabled by default based on operator restrictions. o If SMS services are not used in the solution, consider disabling them completely. • Establish remote connections through OpenVPN. If the SSH protocol is used for remote administration of Arctic wireless gateway, it is to be considered logging in to the wireless gateway through an OpenVPN tunnel. • Do not expose SSH port to public networks. Keep the SSH port closed to public networks and thus limit the number of potential attackers who can attempt to exploit the vulnerability. This way only devices within your private network or those connected through a secure VPN can access the SSH server. • Restrict physical access to the product. Refer to section General security recommendations for further advice on how to keep your system secure.

- 2NGA002427ABB Arctic ARG600, ARC600, ARR600, ARP600 Arctic Wireless Gateway Modem Module and OpenSSH vulnerabilities2025-04-07csaf · abb_psirtCH
ABB is aware of public reports of the vulnerabilities in the product versions listed as affected in this advisory. An attacker who successfully exploited modem module vulnerabilities could run arbitrary code in the wireless modem module of the product. This could lead to denial of service or tampering with unencrypted traffic. An attacker who successfully exploited the OpenSSH vulnerability could run arbitrary code in the product with privileged user permissions. This could cause the product to stop, make the product inaccessible, or the attacker could take control of the product. As part of ABB product lifecycle policy, once a product transitions to Limited state, we discontinue maintenance, security patches, and technical support to focus on current and future technologies. While the product will continue to function, we strongly recommend implementing mitigations defined in this document to mitigate security risks.
