Network-reachable and unauthenticated (AV:N/PR:N); AC:L because a valid handle is sniffable/guessable on OT networks; high C/I from session hijack, A:N as the device stays up.

DescriptionCVE.org

EIPStackGroup OpENer 2.3.0 (commit 76b95cf) suffers from an Incorrect Access Control vulnerability in its handling of encapsulation sessions. When the server processes critical encapsulation commands, it verifies whether the provided session_handle exists in the global session list, but it fails to verify whether that handle belongs to the specific TCP connection issuing the request. Because there is no strong binding between a session handle and its originating socket, any attacker on the network can use a valid session handle created by another legitimate client to bypass access controls.

AnalysisAI

Access-control bypass in EIPStackGroup OpENer 2.3.0 (commit 76b95cf) lets any unauthenticated network attacker hijack another client's EtherNet/IP encapsulation session by replaying a valid session_handle, because the stack validates the handle against a global session list but never binds it to the originating TCP socket. Affected industrial devices running this open-source stack can have their EtherNet/IP command channel abused for read/write operations under another client's authority. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Gain access to OT network segment
Delivery
Sniff or guess valid session_handle
Exploit
Open TCP connection to OpENer device
Execution
Replay handle in encapsulation command
Persist
Bypass access control on victim session
Impact
Read/write CIP data as another client

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that at least one legitimate client has an active registered encapsulation session on the target OpENer device, and that the attacker knows or can obtain that client's valid 32-bit session_handle - achievable by sniffing EtherNet/IP traffic on a shared/flat OT network or by guessing if handles are predictable. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The supplied CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N, base 9.1) presents this as a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated flaw with high confidentiality and integrity impact and no availability impact - consistent with a session-hijack that lets an attacker issue privileged encapsulation commands without disabling the device. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker with access to the OT network segment passively captures EtherNet/IP traffic and observes (or brute-forces) a session_handle that a legitimate HMI or engineering workstation registered with an OpENer-based device. Opening their own TCP connection to the device, the attacker submits encapsulation commands carrying that stolen handle; OpENer accepts them because the handle exists in its global session table, granting the attacker the victim session's access to read and manipulate CIP data. …
Remediation No vendor-released patched version is identified in the available data at time of analysis - the primary reference is an open GitHub issue (https://github.com/EIPStackGroup/OpENer/issues/565) rather than a tagged release, so no fixed version number should be cited. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all systems running EIPStackGroup OpENer 2.3.0 (commit 76b95cf) and assess deployment scope in operational technology environments. …
