Generic:
For devices 750-362 – 750-365 and 750-823, 750-862, 750-890 – 750-893 the FTP server is disabled in the default configuration.
If you enabled the FTP Server, but you do not need FTP data transfer, you can deactivate the FTP Server over the product settings in the web-based management. As general security measures strongly WAGO recommends:
- Use general security best practices to protect systems from local and network attacks.
- Do not allow direct access to the device from untrusted networks.
Update to the latest firmware according to the table in chapter solutions. Industrial control systems (ICS) should not be directly accessible from the Internet, but should be protected by consistently applying the defense-in-depth strategy. The BSI provides general information on securing ICS in the ICS Compendium [BSI2013] and on the official BSI website [BSI2021].
Kaspersky ICS CERT mitigation
Primary:
Set up the border firewall (or a similar network traffic control solution) to allow only authorized parties to send traffic to port 21/TCP of the system.
Kaspersky publishes information on newly identified vulnerabilities in order to raise user awareness of the IT security threats detected. Kaspersky does not make any guarantees with respect to information received from vendors of products in which vulnerabilities have been identified, which is included in the following sections of the advisory: Affected Products, Vendor Mitigation.
