CVE-2023-27465

Physical-access disclosure of TO configuration

Published Jun 13, 2023 · Updated Aug 2, 2024

Information disclosure in Siemens SIMOTION products before V5.5 SP1 allows attackers to extract confidential technology object configuration via physical access. At Security Level Low, debugging-related services lack access protection and expose technology object configuration to unauthenticated physical attackers. The attack requires physical proximity and causes confidentiality loss without reported integrity or availability impact.
