A vulnerability has been identified in Opcenter Execution Discrete (All versions < V3.2), Opcenter Execution Foundation (All versions < V3.2), Opcenter Execution Process (All versions < V3.2), Opcenter Intelligence (All versions < V3.3), Opcenter Quality (All versions < V11.3), Opcenter RD&L (V8.0), SIMATIC IT LMS (All versions < V2.6), SIMATIC IT Production Suite (All versions < V8.0), SIMATIC Notifier Server for Windows (All versions), SIMATIC PCS neo (All versions < V3.0 SP1), SIMATIC STEP 7 (TIA Portal) V15 (All versions < V15.1 Update 5), SIMATIC STEP 7 (TIA Portal) V16 (All versions < V16 Update 2), SIMOCODE ES V15.1 (All versions < V15.1 Update 4), SIMOCODE ES V16 (All versions < V16 Update 1), Soft Starter ES V15.1 (All versions < V15.1 Update 3), Soft Starter ES V16 (All versions < V16 Update 1). Sending multiple specially crafted packets to the affected service could cause a partial remote denial-of-service, that would cause the service to restart itself. On some cases the vulnerability could leak random information from the remote service.
This vulnerability carries a HIGH severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 8.2, indicating it can be exploited remotely over the network with relatively low complexity without requiring user interaction and does not require pre-existing privileges . The vulnerability impacts confidentiality (data exposure), and limited availability for affected systems. Impacting 13 products from siemens, from siemens, from siemens and 10 others, organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Reported in 2020, this vulnerability emerged during an era marked by increased sophistication in supply chain attacks, cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) security challenges. Security practices during this period emphasized zero-trust architectures, container security, and API protection.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For siemens's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
