BD lists Knowledge Portal, HealthSight and Kiestra products in scope for Zerologon

MedDevice Cyber Staff · Nov 6 · 2 min read · Via BD bulletin: Third-Party Vulnerability: Netlogon Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability (Zerologon)

BD published a third-party bulletin on November 6, 2020 for Zerologon, the Netlogon elevation of privilege vulnerability CVE-2020-1472. BD lists products that use affected Netlogon Remote Protocol versions: the Infusion, Supply and Medication Knowledge Portals, Intelliport, Kiestra InoqulA and ReadA Standalone, Kiestra TLA and WCA, and HealthSight Clinical Advisor, Data Manager, Diversion Management, Infection Advisor and Inventory Optimization.

BD has received no reports of exploitation on its products. Zerologon comes from a flaw in the protocol's cryptographic implementation, and it lets an attacker on the network take over a domain controller. Any BD server joined to a vulnerable domain inherits that risk, whatever its own patch level.

For ProvidersOperators, hospitals, and clinical engineering

Microsoft released the Zerologon fix for domain controllers, and BD's November 6, 2020 bulletin lists the BD products that use affected Netlogon versions. Patch every domain controller the BD servers trust and apply BD's guidance for the product servers themselves. Enforce secure RPC for Netlogon once all members support it.

Patch the domain controllers. Apply Microsoft's CVE-2020-1472 update to every domain controller serving BD systems.
Follow BD guidance on members. Update listed BD servers per BD's validated patch instructions.
Enforce secure RPC. Turn on Netlogon secure RPC enforcement after confirming BD products are compatible.

For Device ManufacturersFix the class in the product

The flaw is in the OS inside the controller, or a system past end of service still in the field. As the maker, own the embedded OS and server lifecycle as a safety obligation, design controllers to update in the field, and make every fault degrade to a defined safe state.

Own the OS lifecycle. Patch the OS and server components on a schedule with a tested delivery path.
Design for field update. And for planned replacement, so an unpatchable unit has a path off the network.
Degrade to safe. A fault drives a defined safe state, never an unexpected stop on a life-sustaining device.
