An Improper Input Validation issue was discovered in Siemens SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.1 prior to V8.1 SP1 with WinCC V7.3 Upd 13, and V8.2 all versions. The improper input validation vulnerability has been identified, which may allow an authenticated remote attacker who is a member of the administrators group to crash services by sending specially crafted messages to the DCOM interface.

An XXE vulnerability has been identified in OPC Foundation UA .NET Sample Code before 2017-03-21 and Local Discovery Server (LDS) before 1.03.367. Among the affected products are Siemens SIMATIC PCS7 (All versions V8.1 and earlier), SIMATIC WinCC (All versions < V7.4 SP1), SIMATIC WinCC Runtime Professional (All versions < V14 SP1), SIMATIC NET PC Software, and SIMATIC IT Production Suite. By sending specially crafted packets to the OPC Discovery Server at port 4840/tcp, an attacker might cause the system to access various resources chosen by the attacker.
