What is CVE-2022-31207?

The Omron SYSMAC Cx product family, including CS, CJ, and CP series PLCs, suffers from a significant cryptographic authentication vulnerability. The issue originates from the use of the Omron FINS protocol, which lacks adequate security measures for authenticating control commands. This vulnerability allows potential attackers to manipulate the transmitted object code during engineering operations, enabling unauthorized code execution on the PLC's ASIC or microprocessor. The exploitation of this flaw could lead to serious implications in industrial automation processes, where compromised PLCs can be manipulated to execute arbitrary commands, disrupting critical operations.
