CVE-2024-54092 is a critical authentication bypass vulnerability in Siemens Industrial Edge Device Kit - arm64 V1.17, published on 8 Apr 2025. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

A vulnerability has been identified in Industrial Edge Device Kit - arm64 V1.17 (All versions), Industrial Edge Device Kit - arm64 V1.18 (All versions), Industrial Edge Device Kit - arm64 V1.19 (All versions), Industrial Edge Device Kit - arm64 V1.20 (All versions < V1.20.2-1), Industrial Edge Device Kit - arm64 V1.21 (All versions < V1.21.1-1), Industrial Edge Device Kit - x86-64 V1.17 (All versions), Industrial Edge Device Kit - x86-64 V1.18 (All versions), Industrial Edge Device Kit - x86-64 V1.19 (All versions), Industrial Edge Device Kit - x86-64 V1.20 (All versions < V1.20.2-1), Industrial Edge Device Kit - x86-64 V1.21 (All versions < V1.21.1-1), Industrial Edge Own Device (IEOD) (All versions < V1.21.1-1-a), Industrial Edge Virtual Device (All versions < V1.21.1-1-a), SCALANCE LPE9413 (6GK5998-3GS01-2AC2) (All versions < V2.1), SIMATIC IPC BX-39A Industrial Edge Device (All versions < V3.0), SIMATIC IPC BX-59A Industrial Edge Device (All versions < V3.0), SIMATIC IPC127E Industrial Edge Device (All versions < V3.0), SIMATIC IPC227E Industrial Edge Device (All versions < V3.0), SIMATIC IPC427E Industrial Edge Device (All versions < V3.0), SIMATIC IPC847E Industrial Edge Device (All versions < V3.0). Affected devices do not properly enforce user authentication on specific API endpoints when identity federation is used. This could facilitate an unauthenticated remote attacker to circumvent authentication and impersonate a legitimate user. Successful exploitation requires that identity federation is currently or has previously been used and the attacker has learned the identity of a legitimate user.

Weakness: CWE-1390 (Weak Authentication)

Task:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
