ADS is a protocol for industrial automation in protected environments. This protocol uses user configured routes, that can be edited remotely via ADS. This special command supports encrypted authentication with username/password. The encryption uses a fixed key, that could be extracted by an attacker. Precondition of the exploitation of this weakness is network access at the moment a route is added." } ] }, "problemtype" : { "problemtype_data" : [ { "description" : [ { "lang" : "eng", "value" : "Insufficiently Protected Credentials CWE-522" } ] } ] }, "references" : { "reference_data" : [ { "name" : "https://download.beckhoff.com/download/Document/product-security/Advisories/advisory-2017-002.pdf", "refsource" : "MISC", "url" : "https://download.beckhoff.com/download/Document/product-security/Advisories/advisory-2017-002.pdf" } ] } }
