A vulnerability has been identified in firmware variant PROFINET IO for EN100 Ethernet module : All versions < V1.04.01; Firmware variant Modbus TCP for EN100 Ethernet module : All versions < V1.11.00; Firmware variant DNP3 TCP for EN100 Ethernet module : All versions < V1.03; Firmware variant IEC 104 for EN100 Ethernet module : All versions < V1.21; EN100 Ethernet module included in SIPROTEC Merging Unit 6MU80 : All versions < 1.02.02; SIPROTEC 7SJ686 : All versions < V 4.83; SIPROTEC 7UT686 : All versions < V 4.01; SIPROTEC 7SD686 : All versions < V 4.03; SIPROTEC 7SJ66 : All versions < V 4.20. The integrated web server (port 80/tcp) of the affected devices could allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive device information if network access was obtained.
The product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information.

There are many different kinds of mistakes that introduce information exposures. The severity of the error can range widely, depending on the context in which the product operates, the type of sensitive information that is revealed, and the benefits it may provide to an attacker. Some kinds of sensitive information include:
Information might be sensitive to different parties, each of which may have their own expectations for whether the information should be protected. These parties include:
Information exposures can occur in different ways:
It is common practice to describe any loss of confidentiality as an “information exposure,” but this can lead to overuse of CWE-200 in CWE mapping. From the CWE perspective, loss of confidentiality is a technical impact that can arise from dozens of different weaknesses, such as insecure file permissions or out-of-bounds read. CWE-200 and its lower-level descendants are intended to cover the mistakes that occur in behaviors that explicitly manage, store, transfer, or cleanse sensitive information.
