A vulnerability has been identified in SIMATIC BATCH V9.1 (All versions), SIMATIC Information Server 2020 (All versions), SIMATIC Information Server 2022 (All versions), SIMATIC PCS 7 V9.1 (All versions), SIMATIC Process Historian 2020 (All versions), SIMATIC Process Historian 2022 (All versions), SIMATIC WinCC Runtime Professional V17 (All versions), SIMATIC WinCC Runtime Professional V18 (All versions), SIMATIC WinCC Runtime Professional V19 (All versions), SIMATIC WinCC Runtime Professional V20 (All versions), SIMATIC WinCC Runtime Professional V21 (All versions), SIMATIC WinCC V7.5 (All versions), SIMATIC WinCC V8.0 (All versions), SIMATIC WinCC V8.1 (All versions). Affected systems do not properly secure their remote user authentication with the deprecated NTLM protocol. This could allow unauthenticated remote attackers, who have achieved a machine in the middle position, to relay NTLM authentication and impersonate a legitimate user. The potential impact depends on the services that are accessible, e.g. a SQL server used by WinCC.

Description from the National Vulnerability Database, published by productcert@siemens.com

What to do: Apply the vendor’s update. The NVD record links to the advisory.

What it means for a small business

If your business uses SIMATIC BATCH V9.1, install the vendor's update. If you're not sure whether you use it, ask whoever manages your computers.

How likely is an attack? The Exploit Prediction Scoring System, run by FIRST (the global association of security response teams), puts the odds of this one being exploited in the next 30 days at 0.34%, higher than 28% of CVEs. That’s low, but low isn’t zero, and the odds jump the day someone publishes an exploit. Scored November 11, 2026, updated daily.

Check your own setup

  • Website check: reads what your site runs from the outside (WordPress version, plugins it can see, old server software) and matches it against this database.
  • Server check: what your web server says about itself, and whether that version has known flaws.
