User activity tracking via forged login requests
Published Nov 8, 2022 · Updated Apr 21, 2025
Cross-site request forgery in Siemens industrial web services allows remote authenticated users to track other users' activities. The /FormLogin endpoint accepts login requests without validating their origin, allowing a forged login to associate a victim's browser with an attacker-controlled session. Exploitation requires an authenticated attacker and user interaction; the reported consequence is activity tracking, not data modification or service interruption.
