Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote

  • CVE-2021-25669 is triggered via malformed POST requests to the web server of affected SCALANCE X200 devices; monitor for anomalous or oversized POST requests to the device web interface on ports 80/TCP and 443/TCP.
  • Focus monitoring on TCP ports 80 and 443 for traffic to SCALANCE X200 series web servers, as these are the attack surface ports identified for this vulnerability.
  • ·No known public exploits specifically target this vulnerability at time of advisory publication.
  • ·The vulnerability is exploitable remotely with low attack complexity and requires no authentication (CVSS v3 9.8), meaning any network-reachable attacker can attempt exploitation without credentials.
