CVE-2022-24042Network attack vector

Session hijacking via nonexpiring AuthToken

Published May 10, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Insufficient session expiration in Siemens Desigo DXR2, PXC3, PXC4, and PXC5 allows remote attackers to reuse captured tokens. The web application leaves each AuthToken valid after the configured auto-logoff timeout, so an old session credential remains authorized. Exposure requires capture of a legitimate token and affects DXR2 before 01.21.142.5-22, PXC3 before 01.21.142.4-18, and PXC4 and PXC5 before 02.20.142.10-10884.
