Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Violation of secure design principles exists in the communication of CAMS for HIS. Affected products and versions are CENTUM series where LHS4800 is installed (CENTUM CS 3000 and CENTUM CS 3000 Small R3.08.10 to R3.09.00), CENTUM series where CAMS function is used (CENTUM VP, CENTUM VP Small, and CENTUM VP Basic R4.01.00 to R4.03.00), CENTUM series regardless of the use of CAMS function (CENTUM VP, CENTUM VP Small, and CENTUM VP Basic R5.01.00 to R5.04.20 and R6.01.00 to R6.09.00), Exaopc R3.72.00 to R3.80.00 (only if NTPF100-S6 'For CENTUM VP Support CAMS for HIS' is installed), B/M9000 CS R5.04.01 to R5.05.01, and B/M9000 VP R6.01.01 to R8.03.01). If an adjacent attacker successfully compromises a computer using CAMS for HIS software, they can use credentials from the compromised machine to access data from another machine using CAMS for HIS software. This can lead to a disabling of CAMS for HIS software functions on any affected machines, or information disclosure/alteration.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

This vulnerability in Yokogawa CAMS for HIS involves a secure design flaw in inter-machine communication. An attacker who has compromised one CAMS for HIS workstation can harvest credentials and use them to authenticate to other CAMS for HIS systems on the same network segment, enabling unauthorized data access, function disruption, and potential information manipulation.

MitigationApply vendor-provided patches for affected versions; implement network segmentation to isolate CAMS for HIS systems and enforce strict access controls between workstations.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify installed Yokogawa product and firmware version
    Locate the CAMS for HIS application or check the firmware version on the Yokogawa system. This is typically accessible through the system console, control system management interface, or product documentation. Record the exact firmware version string (for example, r3.08.10, r5.04.20, v8.03.01).
    Affected if The firmware version matches any of the following ranges: Centum CS 3000 or Entry Class (r3.08.10 through r3.09.00); Centum VP or Entry Class (r4.01.00 through r4.03.00, r5.01.00 through r5.04.20, or r6.01.00 through r6.09.00); Exaopc (r3.72.00 through r3.80.00); B/m9000 VP (r6.01.01 through v8.03.0
  2. Confirm CAMS for HIS inter-machine communication is configured
    Review the CAMS for HIS configuration settings to determine if communication between multiple workstations is enabled. This typically involves checking the system's network configuration, communication settings, or inter-station messaging parameters within the CAMS for HIS management console.
    Affected if Inter-machine communication or workstation-to-workstation messaging features are enabled on the system.
  3. Determine if multiple CAMS for HIS systems exist on the same network segment
    Audit the network environment to identify all CAMS for HIS workstations. Use network scanning, review network topology documentation, or query the control system network configuration to enumerate all connected CAMS for HIS nodes.
    Affected if Two or more CAMS for HIS workstations are present on the same local network segment or subnet.
  4. Verify credential storage and transmission settings
    Inspect the CAMS for HIS security configuration to determine how user credentials are stored and transmitted between workstations. Look for settings related to credential caching, authentication token handling, or inter-station credential sharing.
    Affected if Credentials are stored in a manner that permits retrieval by other CAMS for HIS workstations on the network, or if inter-station authentication uses shared secret material.

A system is affected if it runs a Yokogawa CAMS for HIS firmware version within the affected ranges AND has inter-machine communication enabled with other CAMS for HIS workstations on the same network segment.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Apply vendor-provided patches for affected versions; implement network segmentation to isolate CAMS for HIS systems and enforce strict access controls between workstations.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Contact Yokogawa for specific fixed versions beyond the affected ranges (e.g., beyond r3.09.00, r4.03.00, r5.04.20, r6.09.00, r3.80.00, r8.03.01, r5.05.01)

  1. Contact Yokogawa technical support to obtain the specific firmware updates that address CVE-2022-30707
  2. Request the latest fixed firmware version for your specific product line (CENTUM CS 3000, CENTUM VP, Exaopc, B/M9000 VP, or B/M9000 CS)
  3. Verify the fixed version with Yokogawa before upgrading to ensure it addresses the CAMS for HIS credential reuse vulnerability
  4. Schedule a maintenance window for the firmware upgrade following Yokogawa's recommended upgrade procedure
  5. After upgrading, verify that the CAMS for HIS communication now properly authenticates each connection independently
  6. Implement network segmentation to isolate CAMS for HIS workstations as an additional defense-in-depth measure
Caveat Firmware upgrades on industrial control systems may require extensive testing in a non-production environment and could affect integration with connected control system components; coordinate with Yokogawa and plant operations
