CVE Published:

Summary

A vulnerability exists in Siemens Control Center Server (CCS) prior to version 1.5.0 due to the lack of enforcement for logging security-relevant activities in its XML-based communication protocol. This gap allows an authenticated remote attacker to exploit the system and execute covert actions that remain undetected in the application log, posing significant risks to security and operational integrity. The affected services communicate over TCP ports 5444 and 5440 by default.

Affected Version(s)

Control Center Server (CCS) All versions < V1.5.0
