Summary
Inadequate SSH configuration in SICK Visionary-S CX

Notes

SICK received a report that informed SICK about an Inadequate Encryption Strength vulnerability in the SICK product “SICK Visionary-S CX” concerning the internal SSH interface solely used by SICK for recovering returned devices. Currently SICK is not aware of any public exploits specifically targeting this vulnerability.
The vulnerability is not visible in any supported customer functionality. Thus customers can only identify products by firmware version. Accessing the device via SSH now shows OpenSSH instead of dropbear.
General Security Measures
As general security measures, SICK recommends to minimize network exposure of the devices, restrict network access and follow recommended security practices in order to run the devices in a protected IT environment.
Vulnerability Classification
SICK performs vulnerability classification by using the CVSS scoring system (*CVSS v3.1*). The environmental score is dependent on the customer’s environment and can affect the overall CVSS score. SICK recommends that customers individually evaluate the environmental score to achieve final scoring.

This can increase the risk that encryption will be compromised, leading to the exposure of sensitive user information and man-in-the-middle attacks.\nSICK has developed a hotfix. In released firmware versions greater than 5.21.2.29154 the SSH server will no longer offer these weak ciphers."
