Summary

Lantronix Device Installer

Notes

Legal Notice

All information products included in https://us-cert.cisa.gov/ics are provided "as is" for informational purposes only. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) does not provide any warranties of any kind regarding any information contained within. DHS does not endorse any commercial product or service, referenced in this product or otherwise. Further dissemination of this product is governed by the Traffic Light Protocol (TLP) marking in the header. For more information about TLP, see https://us-cert.cisa.gov/tlp/.

Risk evaluation

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to gain access to the host machine running the Device Installer software.

Critical infrastructure sectors

Information Technology

Countries/areas deployed

Worldwide

Company headquarters location

United States

Recommended Practices

CISA recommends users take defensive measures to minimize the risk of exploitation of this vulnerability such as:

Recommended Practices

Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems, ensuring they are not accessible from the internet.

Recommended Practices

Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls and isolating them from business networks.

Recommended Practices

When remote access is required, use more secure methods, such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), recognizing VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should be updated to the most current version available. Also recognize VPN is only as secure as the connected devices.

Recommended Practices

CISA reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk assessment prior to deploying defensive measures.

Recommended Practices

CISA also provides a section for control systems security recommended practices on the ICS webpage on cisa.gov/ics. Several CISA products detailing cyber defense best practices are available for reading and download, including Improving Industrial Control Systems Cybersecurity with Defense-in-Depth Strategies.

Recommended Practices

CISA encourages organizations to implement recommended cybersecurity strategies for proactive defense of ICS assets.

Recommended Practices

Additional mitigation guidance and recommended practices are publicly available on the ICS webpage at cisa.gov/ics in the technical information paper, ICS-TIP-12-146-01B--Targeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation Strategies.

Recommended Practices

Organizations observing suspected malicious activity should follow established internal procedures and report findings to CISA for tracking and correlation against other incidents.

Recommended Practices

CISA also recommends users take the following measures to protect themselves from social engineering attacks:

Recommended Practices

Do not click web links or open attachments in unsolicited email messages.

Recommended Practices

Refer to Recognizing and Avoiding Email Scams for more information on avoiding email scams.

Recommended Practices

Refer to Avoiding Social Engineering and Phishing Attacks for more information on social engineering attacks.

Recommended Practices

No known public exploitation specifically targeting this vulnerability has been reported to CISA at this time. This vulnerability is not exploitable remotely.
