Company issues three security advisories highlighting 10 vulnerabilities in its FactoryTalk, PowerFlex, and Arena Simulation products

Rockwell Automation recently issued three security advisories highlighting 10 vulnerabilities in its FactoryTalk, PowerFlex, and Arena Simulation products. The US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has also echoed these advisories to inform organizations about the identified vulnerabilities within the industrial automation company's offerings.

Among the disclosed vulnerabilities, one advisory focused on six flaws within the Arena Simulation software. These included five high-severity arbitrary code execution vulnerabilities and one medium-severity information disclosure and denial-of-service (DoS) issue. Each vulnerability necessitates the user to open a malicious file to exploit it. Rockwell Automation credited the discovery of these vulnerabilities to ICS cybersecurity researcher Michael Heinzl, who is recognized for reporting critical vulnerabilities that often involve manipulating specifically crafted files. Heinzl's advisories elaborated on the exploitation methods involving customized DOE files reported to the vendor through CISA in November 2023.
