Internal configuration exposure via hidden debug setting
Published Sep 10, 2024 · Updated Sep 10, 2024
Hidden functionality in Siemens SIMATIC RFID reader firmware allows remote authenticated users to inspect internal configuration. The firmware exposes a hidden configuration item that enables debug functionality and provides insight into the deployment's internal settings. Network access and low-privileged authentication are required; affected releases are before 1.1, 2.2, or 4.2, depending on model.
