DoS in Siemens SIMATIC/SIPLUS ET 200 interface modules via S7 Disconnect Request (TCP/102)

IdentifiersCVE-2025-40944CWE-400· Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

Multiple Siemens SIMATIC and SIPLUS ET 200-series interface modules and PN couplers do not properly handle S7 protocol session disconnect requests. When an attacker sends a valid S7 protocol Disconnect Request (COTP DR TPDU) to the device on TCP port 102, the device can enter an improper session state. This improper state can render the device unresponsive, and normal operation is only restored after a power cycle.

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.

Remote, unauthenticated denial of service. Affected devices can be driven into an unresponsive state by network traffic to TCP/102 (S7), causing loss of availability (CVSS v3.1 A:H) and requiring a physical/operational intervention (power cycle) to recover.

Mitigation

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

Reduce exposure of S7 communications to affected devices: restrict/segment access to TCP port 102 to only trusted hosts (e.g., authorized PLCs/engineering stations), enforce firewall/ACL rules to block untrusted sources, and ensure devices are not directly reachable from the Internet. Follow Siemens Industrial Security operational guidelines and standard ICS network isolation practices (separate control networks from business networks; use secured remote access such as updated VPNs).

Remediation

Patch, then assume compromise.

Apply Siemens-provided fixed firmware/software versions for the affected SIMATIC/SIPLUS ET 200 interface modules and PN couplers (upgrade to the vendor-specified fixed versions or later where available). For products where Siemens has not yet released a fix, monitor Siemens ProductCERT advisory SSA-674753 and deploy the fix as soon as it becomes available.
