Solution

Sinapsi has developed a new firmware version 2.0.2870_2.2.12 that mitigates these vulnerabilities. Sinapsi released the new firmware on Monday, November 19, 2012 directly to the devices. Users will be able to manually download the firmware on their device by using the Firmware Update function in the System Menu in the device’s Web interface. Sinapsi has also posted a security newsletter to its public Web site http://www.sinapsitech.it/default.asp  .Other affected vendors have been notified by Sinapsi and ICS-CERT, but the availability of new firmware upgrades are unknown by ICS-CERT at this time.


Workaround

No workaround given by the vendor.

Description The management web pages on the Sinapsi eSolar Light Photovoltaic System Monitor (aka Schneider Electric Ezylog photovoltaic SCADA management server), Sinapsi eSolar, and Sinapsi eSolar DUO with firmware before 2.0.2870_2.2.12 do not require authentication, which allows remote attackers to obtain administrative access via a direct request, as demonstrated by a request to ping.php. These Sinapsi devices do not check if users that visit pages within the device have properly authenticated. By directly visiting the pages within the device, attackers can gain unauthorized access with administrative privileges.
