Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-40360 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Siemens SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.2. 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-2021-40360/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-40360/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-40360","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-40360/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-40360","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8hg6-3x59-7xjr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"ics_ot","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Siemens SCADA software","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated attacker can retrieve password hashes via public API and brute force them to gain unauthorized access to the server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"siemens","cpe":[{"product":"simatic_pcs_7","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"simatic_wincc","vendor":"siemens"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-522","name":"Insufficiently Protected Credentials"},{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"A vulnerability has been identified in SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.2 (All versions), SIMATIC PCS 7 V9.0 (All versions), SIMATIC PCS 7 V9.1 (All versions \u003c V9.1 SP1), SIMATIC WinCC V15 and earlier (All versions \u003c V15 SP1 Update 7), SIMATIC WinCC V16 (All versions \u003c V16 Update 5), SIMATIC WinCC V17 (All versions \u003c V17 Update 2), SIMATIC WinCC V7.4 (All versions \u003c V7.4 SP1 Update 19), SIMATIC WinCC V7.5 (All versions \u003c V7.5 SP2 Update 6).
