Hitachi Energy Lumada APM Edge

CVSS 7.5 HIGH

Risk Summary

Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to cause a denial-of-service condition or disclosure of sensitive information.

Remediations

  • Hitachi Energy has fixed the vulnerabilities for Lumada APM in version 6.5.0.2 and later and recommends users update their systems to the appropriate version. Lumada APM Edge versions 4.0 and prior are no longer supported and are considered End-of-Life.
  • Hitachi Energy reported that Lumada APM Edge relies on the HAProxy service (a pre-requisite component) as an API gateway, so it must be exposed to the end-users via network. For Lumada APM Edge to be accessible to the end-users, it is crucial for this service, which also utilizes OpenSSL libraries, to be updated along with its underlying operating system.
  • Recommended security practices and firewall configurations can help protect a process control network fromattacks that originate from outside the network. Such practices include that process control systems are physically protected from direct access by unauthorized personnel, have no direct connections to the Internet, and are separated from other networks by means of a firewall system that has a minimal number of ports exposed, have security updates applied to installed software components and others that must be evaluated case by case. Process control systems should not be used for Internet surfing, instant messaging, or receiving e-mails. Portable computers and removable storage media should be carefully scanned for viruses before they are connected to a control system.
