Security research: CODESYS Runtime, a PLC control framework. Part 2
This article continues the discussion of research on popular OEM technologies that are implemented in the products of a large number of vendors. Vulnerabilities in such technologies are highly likely to affect the security of many, if not all, products that use them. In some cases, this means hundreds of products that are used in industrial environments and in critical infrastructure facilities. This is the case with CODESYS Runtime, a framework by CODESYS designed for developing and executing industrial control system software.

A silver bullet for the attacker. A study into the security of hardware license tokens
In the past years, the problem of vulnerabilities in industrial automation systems has been becoming increasingly important. The fact that industrial control systems have been developing in parallel with IT systems, relatively independently and often without regard for modern secure coding practices is probably the main source of ICS security problems.

The Relevance of WPA2 Vulnerabilities and KRACK Attacks to Industrial Systems
Critical vulnerabilities that have recently been identified in the WPA2 protocol enable threat actors to carry out Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks and force devices connected to the network to reinstall encryption keys that protect traffic. These vulnerabilities can be used, among other things, to implement attacks on industrial automation systems.
