Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote

  • CVE-2018-5475 affects GE D60 Line Distance Relay devices running firmware Version 7.11 and prior; multiple stack-based buffer overflow vulnerabilities enable remote code execution without authentication
  • The vulnerability is remotely exploitable with no authentication and no user interaction required (CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), making it detectable via anomalous unauthenticated network traffic to D60 relay devices
  • A separate but related vulnerability (CVE-2018-5473) targets the SSH functions of the D60 device via buffer overflow; monitor for anomalous or malformed SSH traffic to D60 devices as a detection vector
  • ·No known public exploits specifically target these vulnerabilities at time of advisory publication
  • ·Affected scope is limited to GE D60 Line Distance Relay devices on firmware Version 7.11 and prior; devices updated to the patched firmware are not affected
