Buffer Overflow RCE in Siemens LOGO! 8 BM Devices

IdentifiersCVE-2025-40815CWE-120· Buffer Copy without Checking Size…

CVE-2025-40815 is a classic buffer overflow vulnerability affecting Siemens LOGO! and SIPLUS LOGO! 8 BM devices, including the listed LOGO! 12/24RCE, 12/24RCEo, 230RCE, 230RCEo, 24CE, 24CEo, 24RCE, 24RCEo, and corresponding SIPLUS variants, all versions. According to the advisory, the affected devices do not properly validate the structure of TCP packets in several methods. A remote attacker can send crafted TCP packets that trigger a buffer overflow condition, potentially allowing control of the instruction counter and execution of attacker-supplied code on the device.

ANALYST BRIEF

Impact, mitigation & remediation

What it means. What to do now. Patch path, mitigations, and the assume-compromise checklist.

Impact

What an attacker gets, and what they’ve been doing with it.

Successful exploitation can cause a buffer overflow leading to control of the instruction counter and remote execution of custom code on the affected device. The advisory also indicates exploitation may result in denial of service or unauthorized changes to device behavior. Given the affected products are industrial control devices, compromise could affect device availability, integrity, and operational behavior.

Mitigation

If you can’t patch tonight, do this now.

Siemens recommends protecting LSC access with a strong password as a mitigation for CVE-2025-40815. In addition, exposure should be minimized by restricting network access to affected devices to trusted hosts and segmented management networks only, following standard ICS defensive practices, although the advisory specifically notes the strong-password recommendation for this CVE.

Remediation

Patch, then assume compromise.

Siemens stated that no fix is currently available for CVE-2025-40815. Organizations should monitor Siemens product advisories for future firmware or product updates addressing this issue if they become available.
