The vulnerability stems from the application not verifying that the JWT algorithm is configured for RSA, enabling an attacker to set the algorithm to "none" and craft forged tokens. This could allow an authenticated low-privilege user to impersonate any authorized user on the FTSP server, resulting in unauthorized access to system configuration and the ability to grant permissions to other systems protected by FTSP.</p> <p><a href="https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-10714">View CVE Details</a></p> <hr /> <h4>Affected Products</h4> <h5>Rockwell Automation FactoryTalk Services Platform</h5> <div class="ics-vendor-version-status"> <div class="ics-vendor"><strong>Vendor:</strong><br />Rockwell Automation</div> <div class="ics-version"><strong>Product Version:</strong><br />Rockwell Automation FactoryTalk Directory (FTSP): 6.60</div> <div class="ics-status"><strong>Product Status:</strong><br />known_affected</div> </div> <div class="ics-remediations"> <h6>Remediations</h6> <p><strong>Mitigation</strong><br />Users using FactoryTalk Services Platform v6.60 should apply either the individual patch (RAID 1158263) or the February 2026 Patch Roll-up, or later update.</p> <p><strong>Mitigation</strong><br />Users using the affected software, who are not able to upgrade to one of the corrected versions, should use Rockwell's security best practices.<br /><a href="https://support.rockwellautomation.com/app/answers/answer_view/a_id/1085012/loc/en_US#__highlight">https://support.rockwellautomation.com/app/answers/answer_view/a_id/1085012/loc/en_US#__highlight</a></p> <p><strong>Mitigation</strong><br />For more information, refer to Rockwell Automation's security advisory SD1786 page.<br /><a href="https://www.rockwellautomation.com/en-us/trust-center/security-advisories/advisory.SD1786.html">https://www.rockwellautomation.com/en-us/trust-center/security-advisories/advisory.SD1786.html</a></p> </div> <p><strong>Relevant CWE:</strong> <a href="https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/1390.html">CWE-1390 Weak Authentication</a></p> <hr /> <h4>Metrics</h4> <div class="csaf-table csaf-metrics-table"> <table class="tablesaw tablesaw-stack"> <thead> <tr> <th>CVSS Version</th> <th>Base Score</th> <th>Base Severity</th> <th>Vector String</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>3.1</td> <td>7.8</td> <td>HIGH</td> <td><a href="https://www.first.org/cvss/calculator/3.1#CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H">CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H</a></td> </tr> <tr> <td>4.0</td> <td>8.8</td> <td>HIGH</td> <td><a href="https://www.first.org/cvss/calculator/4.0#CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:H/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H">CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:H/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H</a></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> </div> </div> </div> <hr /> <h2>Acknowledgments</h2> <ul> <li>Rockwell Automation reported this vulnerability to CISA</li> </ul> <hr /> <h2>Legal Notice and Terms of Use</h2> <p>This product is provided subject to this Notification (https://www.cisa.gov/notification) and this Privacy &amp; Use policy (https://www.cisa.gov/privacy-policy).</p> <hr /> <h2>Recommended Practices</h2> <p>CISA recommends users take defensive measures to minimize the risk of exploitation of this vulnerability.</p> <p>Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems, ensuring they are not accessible from the internet.</p> <p>Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls and isolating them from business networks.</p> <p>When remote access is required, use more secure methods, such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), recognizing VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should be updated to the most current version available. Also recognize VPN is only as secure as the connected devices.</p> <p>CISA reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk assessment prior to deploying defensive measures.</p> <p>CISA also provides a section for control systems security recommended practices on the ICS webpage on cisa.gov/ics. Several CISA products detailing cyber defense best practices are available for reading and download, including Improving Industrial Control Systems Cybersecurity with Defense-in-Depth Strategies.</p> <p>CISA encourages organizations to implement recommended cybersecurity strategies for proactive defense of ICS assets.</p> <p>Additional mitigation guidance and recommended practices are publicly available on the ICS webpage at cisa.gov/ics in the technical information paper, ICS-TIP-12-146-01B--Targeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation Strategies.</p> <p>Organizations observing suspected malicious activity should follow established internal procedures and report findings to CISA for tracking and correlation against other incidents.</p> <p>CISA also recommends users take the following measures to protect themselves from social engineering attacks:</p> <p>Do not click web links or open attachments in unsolicited email messages.</p> <p>Refer to Recognizing and Avoiding Email Scams for more information on avoiding email scams.</p> <p>Refer to Avoiding Social Engineering and Phishing Attacks for more information on social engineering attacks.</p> <p>No known public exploitation specifically targeting this vulnerability has been reported to CISA at this time.
