CVE-2024-33496

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions SIMATIC RTLS Locating Manager versions prior to V3.0.1.1

Description A vulnerability has been identified in SIMATIC RTLS Locating Manager where affected Report Clients do not properly protect credentials used to authenticate to the server. This could allow an authenticated local attacker to extract the credentials and use them to escalate their access rights from the Manager to the Systemadministrator role. The issue is related to insufficient protection of registration data.

Recommendations For SIMATIC RTLS Locating Manager versions prior to V3.0.1.1, update to version V3.0.1.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Report Clients to minimize the risk of exploitation.
