Siemens OpenSSL ASN.1 Out-of-Bounds Read Affects Devices

🔒 Siemens products that include vulnerable OpenSSL libraries are affected by an out-of-bounds read (CVE-2021-3712) that may be exploited remotely and carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.4. A broad set of industrial networking and automation devices — including SCALANCE, RUGGEDCOM, SIMATIC, SINEMA, SINUMERIK, TIA and Industrial Edge apps — are listed as impacted. OpenSSL fixes are available in 1.1.1l and 1.0.2za; Siemens has published product updates and mitigations where possible. CISA and Siemens recommend applying vendor-supplied updates, minimizing network exposure, isolating control networks, and using secure remote access until fixes are deployed.

Testing Post-Quantum TLS in Python with OpenSSL 3.5

🔐 AWS provides a containerized sample to test post-quantum hybrid TLS (PQ TLS) from Python by bundling OpenSSL 3.5 with a standard interpreter and common libraries. The sample demonstrates hybrid key exchange using ML-KEM alongside classical algorithms and includes examples for boto3/AWS CLI, requests, and low-level ssl sockets. It also shows how to capture traffic and confirm PQ negotiation in TLS handshakes.
