Automation 360 Robotic Process Automation suite v21-v32 is vulnerable to unauthenticated Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF).
SSRF occurs when the server can be induced to perform arbitrary requests on behalf of an attacker. An attacker with unauthenticated access to the Automation 360 Control Room HTTPS service (port 443) or HTTP service (port 80) can trigger arbitrary web requests from the server.

- We need to talk about mathematical backdoors in encryption algorithms
December 15, 2017
Security researchers regularly set out to find implementation problems in cryptographic algorithms, but not enough effort is going towards the search for mathematical backdoors, two cryptography professors have argued. Governments and intelligence agencies strive to control and bypass or circumvent cryptographic protection of data and communications. Backdooring encryption algorithms is considered as the best way to ...

- Why bother cracking PCs? Spot o’ malware on PLCs… Done. Industrial control network pwned
December 12, 2017
Security researchers have demonstrated a new technique for hacking air-gapped industrial control system networks, and hope their work will encourage the development of more robust defences for SCADA-based systems. Air-gapped industrial networks are thought to be difficult if not impossible to hack partly because they are isolated from the internet and corporate IT networks. However, in ...
