Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-7971 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Schneider Electric SE Citect Anywhere. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7971/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7971/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-7971","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7971/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-7971","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8f23-48gc-8rgj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"ics_ot","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SCADA Anywhere software","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Schneider Electric SCADA software uses outdated ciphers and improper SSL verification, allowing attackers to bypass security controls.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"weak_cryptography"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"schneider","cpe":[{"product":"citect_anywhere","vendor":"schneider-electric"},{"product":"powerscada_anywhere","vendor":"schneider-electric"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-295","name":"Improper Certificate Validation"}],"description":"A vulnerability exists in Schneider Electric's PowerSCADA Anywhere v1.0 redistributed with PowerSCADA Expert v8.1 and PowerSCADA Expert v8.2 and Citect Anywhere version 1.0 that allows the use of outdated cipher suites and improper verification of peer SSL Certificate.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Weak cryptography in Citect Anywhere","id":"CVE-2017-7971","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"weak_cryptography","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Command injection in Citect Anywhere","id":"CVE-2017-7972"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Server-side request forgery in Citect Anywhere","id":"CVE-2017-7970"},"products":["Citect Anywhere","PowerSCADA Anywhere"],"published":"2017-09-25","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in Citect Anywhere","id":"CVE-2017-7969","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-09-25"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Server-side request forgery in Citect Anywhere","id":"CVE-2017-7970","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-09-25"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Command injection in Citect Anywhere","id":"CVE-2017-7972","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-09-25"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-16","vendors":["Schneider Electric SE"]},"summary":"Schneider Electric SCADA software uses outdated ciphers and improper SSL verification, allowing attackers to bypass security controls.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7971/"}
