CVE-2026-10577: CWE-306 Missing authentication for critical function in Rockwell Auotmation 1715 EtherNet/IP Communications Module
A security issue exists within the 1715-AENTR EtherNet/IP Adapter. The affected product exposes a network-accessible debug port that does not enforce proper privilege controls, allowing unauthenticated remote access to intrusive command-line interface (CLI) commands. If exploited, a threat actor could read or delete files, stop tasks, modify memory, and change I/O states, potentially impacting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the device.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-10577 is a critical security vulnerability in the Rockwell Automation 1715-AENTR EtherNet/IP Adapter. The device exposes a debug port accessible over the network that lacks proper privilege controls and authentication. This allows unauthenticated remote attackers to access a command-line interface with intrusive capabilities, including file manipulation, task termination, memory modification, and I/O state changes. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-306 (Missing Authentication for Critical Function) and carries a CVSS 4.0 base score of 10.0, indicating critical severity. No vendor advisory or patch information is currently available, and the affected versions have not been explicitly stated.
Potential Impact
Exploitation of this vulnerability can lead to unauthorized remote access to critical device functions without any authentication. Attackers could compromise the device's confidentiality by reading sensitive files, integrity by modifying memory and I/O states, and availability by stopping essential tasks. This could disrupt industrial control processes relying on the affected module.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict network access to the affected device's debug port to trusted management networks only. Monitor for unusual activity related to the device and apply network segmentation to limit exposure. Follow Rockwell Automation's advisories for updates.
