Summary
ABB is aware of a vulnerability related to the VideONet product. The vulnerability is applicable in the System 800xA versions listed as affected in the advisory, where the VideONet product is used. There will be no update/resolution of this vulnerability in System 800xA. Instead, the strategy for ABB is to offer existing customers using VideONet a transfer to a new product, Camera Connect. This will be offered as soon as Camera Connect is available as a product.
An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could, in the worst-case scenario, stop or manipulate the video feed.
There is no impact to other Operator station functions (graphics, trends, faceplates, etc.) and Control operations are not impacted at all.
