Summary

The Web-Based Management (WBM) of WAGOs programmable logic controller (PLC) is typically used for administration, commissioning and updates.
The SNMP configuration page of the device is vulnerable for a persistent XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) attack.

Impact

An attacker needs an authorized login on the device in order to exploit the snmp configuration website with malicious scripts. This can be used to install malicious code and to gain access to confidential information.
