A vulnerability has been identified in SIPORT MP (All versions < 3.1.4). Vulnerable versions of the device allow the creation of special accounts (service users) with administrative privileges that could enable a remote authenticated attacker to perform actions that are not visible to other users of the system, such as granting persons access to a secured area.

Weakness

When a security-critical event occurs, the product either does not record the event or omits important details about the event when logging it.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Siport_mp Siemens * 3.1.4 (excluding)

Extended Description

When security-critical events are not logged properly, such as a failed login attempt, this can make malicious behavior more difficult to detect and may hinder forensic analysis after an attack succeeds. As organizations adopt cloud storage resources, these technologies often require configuration changes to enable detailed logging information, since detailed logging can incur additional costs. This could lead to telemetry gaps in critical audit logs. For example, in Azure, the default value for logging is disabled.
