Summary

mGuards use an OpenSSH server for SSH access. This server is vulnerable to a remote code injection.


Last Update:

Aug. 30, 2024, 9:21 a.m.

Weakness

Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')  (CWE-362) 

Summary

A security regression (CVE-2006-5051) was discovered in OpenSSH's server (sshd). There is a race condition which can lead to sshd to handle some signals in an unsafe manner. An unauthenticated, remote attacker may be able to trigger it by failing to authenticate within a set time period.


Impact

Attackers can inject code in the SSH server, which is run with high privileges.

Solution

Mitigation

Access to the SSH server should be limited to trustworthy networks or peers. Remote access to the SSH server should be disabled.

Remediation

Phoenix Contact strongly recommends upgrading affected mGuard devices to firmware version 8.9.3 / 10.4.1 or higher which fixes this vulnerability.
