Act Now9.8ICS-CERT ICSA-22-298-07Oct 25, 2022
Attack VectorNetwork
Auth RequiredNone
ComplexityLow
User InteractionNone needed
Summary

InfraSuite Device Master versions up to 1.0.3 contain multiple critical vulnerabilities (improper deserialization, path traversal, missing authentication) that allow unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code with local administrator privileges, delete files, or change group privileges. The affected versions are InfraSuite Device Master <= 00.00.01a and < 1.0.3.

What this means
What could happen
An unauthenticated attacker on your network could run arbitrary commands on the Device Master with administrator privileges, read or modify any file on the system, or crash the service by deleting critical files. This could disrupt remote monitoring and control of your distributed infrastructure devices across your network.
Who's at risk
Water authorities and electric utilities that use Delta InfraSuite Device Master to monitor and manage remote devices (RTUs, substations, pump stations, treatment plants) across distributed networks. This affects any facility using Device Master as the central management point.
How it could be exploited
An attacker with network access to the Device Master's listening port can send unauthenticated requests that exploit deserialization or path traversal flaws to execute code, delete files, or escalate privileges—no credentials or user interaction required.
Prerequisites
  • Network access to InfraSuite Device Master (port and protocol unspecified in advisory)

0/3
HARDENINGIsolate InfraSuite Device Master and all connected infrastructure devices behind firewall rules; block network access from internet and untrusted networks
HARDENINGIf remote access to the device is required, route all connections through a VPN with current patches applied
HARDENINGEnsure device is not directly accessible from the internet or business network; segment to a dedicated control system network
Schedule — requires maintenance window
0/1

Patching may require device reboot — plan for process interruption
