⚠️ Festo CPX-CEC-C1 and CPX-CMXX devices contain an improper privilege management vulnerability (CWE-269) that permits unauthenticated remote access to critical webserver functions and may cause a denial of service. The issue is identified as CVE-2022-3079 with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/A:H). Festo currently has no firmware fix planned; recommended mitigations include restricting access to TCP port 80 and replacing affected units with specified follow-up products.

🛡️ National cybersecurity agencies from seven countries released unified operational technology (OT) security guidance on 29 September, aimed at practitioners who deploy or operate OT equipment and systems. The document is organised around five core principles and supplies step-by-step actions for OT security teams to strengthen resilience. It emphasises creating and maintaining a definitive record that covers asset classification, connectivity mapping, system architecture and third-party risks.

🔒 CISA, the FBI, the UK NCSC, and international partners published joint guidance titled Creating and Maintaining a Definitive View of Your Operational Technology (OT) Architecture. The guidance explains how organizations can use data sources such as asset inventories and manufacturer-provided resources, including software bill of materials, to create and maintain an accurate OT record. It highlights benefits like improved risk assessment, prioritization of critical and exposed systems, and stronger architectural controls, and recommends cross-team collaboration and alignment with IEC 62443 and ISO/IEC 27001.

🔔 CISA released one Industrial Control Systems advisory on September 25, 2025 addressing Dingtian DT-R002. The advisory, ICSA-25-268-01, provides technical details on identified vulnerabilities and recommended mitigations for affected ICS devices. Administrators and operators are encouraged to review the advisory promptly and apply mitigations to reduce operational risk. This product is provided subject to CISA's Notification and Privacy & Use policies.

⚠️ CISA warns that the Dingtian DT-R002 relay board contains two Insufficiently Protected Credentials vulnerabilities (CVE-2025-10879, CVE-2025-10880) that allow unauthenticated attackers to retrieve a username and extract the proprietary protocol password. Both flaws affect all versions, are remotely exploitable with low complexity, and carry CVSS v4 base scores of 8.7. Dingtian has not engaged with CISA; users should restrict HTTP (TCP/80) and the Dingtian protocol on UDP/60000–60001, isolate devices from the internet, and follow ICS defensive best practices.

🔔 CISA released six Industrial Control Systems (ICS) advisories on September 23, 2025, providing timely information on security issues, vulnerabilities, and potential exploits across multiple product families. The advisories cover AutomationDirect CLICK PLUS, Mitsubishi Electric MELSEC‑Q Series CPU Module, Schneider Electric SESU, Viessmann Vitogate 300, and two updates for Hitachi Energy RTU500 Series. Users and administrators are urged to review each advisory for technical details and apply recommended mitigations promptly.

🚨 CISA published an advisory on September 23, 2025, describing high‑severity vulnerabilities in Viessmann's Vitogate 300 gateway. The advisory identifies an OS command injection (CWE‑78, CVE‑2025‑9494) and a client‑side enforcement bypass (CWE‑602, CVE‑2025‑9495) that can enable command modification or unexpected client–server interactions. A CVSS v4 base score of 8.7 is reported overall, and affected devices running versions prior to 3.1.0.1 should be upgraded. CISA notes these issues are not remotely exploitable and recommends updating to 3.1.0.1 and implementing network hardening controls.

⚠️ CISA advises that a denial-of-service vulnerability (CVE-2025-8531) affects Mitsubishi Electric MELSEC-Q Series CPU modules when the user authentication function is enabled, due to improper handling of a length parameter (CWE-130). The issue has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 6.8 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H) and is exploitable remotely but characterized by high attack complexity. Mitsubishi has identified fixed units with serial ranges beginning '27082' or later and recommends migrating to the successor MELSEC iQ-R Series where updates are unavailable; organizations should apply network-access restrictions and defense-in-depth mitigations.

⚠ Schneider Electric has released an update addressing a link‑following vulnerability (CVE‑2025‑5296) in SESU that could allow an authenticated, low‑privileged actor to write arbitrary data to protected locations. The issue, rated CVSS v3.1 base score 7.3, affects SESU versions prior to 3.0.12 and numerous Schneider Electric products that bundle SESU. Version 3.0.12 contains the fix; apply the update or restrict access to the installation directory and follow CISA mitigation guidance.

🔒 AutomationDirect has disclosed multiple vulnerabilities in the CLICK PLUS series affecting firmware releases prior to v3.71. Issues include cleartext credential storage, a hard-coded AES key, an insecure RSA implementation, a predictable PRNG seed, authorization bypasses, and resource exhaustion flaws. CVSS v4 severity reaches 8.7 for the most critical cryptographic and key-generation weaknesses. AutomationDirect and CISA recommend updating to v3.80 and applying network isolation, access restrictions, logging, and endpoint protections until patches are deployed.
