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
An attacker may exploit the use of outdated and weak MAC algorithms in the device’s SSH service to potentially compromise the integrity of the SSH session, allowing manipulation of transmitted data if the attacker can interact with the network traffic.

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

The vulnerability stems from the SSH service supporting outdated and weak Message Authentication Code (MAC) algorithms, which could allow a man-in-the-middle attacker with network traffic interaction capabilities to manipulate transmitted data by exploiting these weak cryptographic primitives.

MitigationDisable weak MAC algorithms (such as md5, sha1, and their variants) in the SSH service configuration and restrict to strong MAC algorithms like hmac-sha2-256 and hmac-sha2-512, then restart the SSH service and verify connectivity.

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. Determine the firmware version of the device
    Access the device management interface or check the system information page to identify the installed firmware version. Look for a version or build number field.
    Affected if The firmware version is below 2.4.1 (for LMS1000 or MRS1000 models)
  2. Verify SSH service is enabled
    Check if the SSH service is running on the device. This may be done through the device web interface, CLI access, or checking running services.
    Affected if SSH service is active and accessible on the network
  3. Locate SSH service configuration
    Find the SSH daemon configuration file. On many Linux-based devices this is typically /etc/ssh/sshd_config or accessible through the device management interface under SSH settings.
    Affected if SSH configuration file exists and is readable
  4. Inspect MAC algorithms configuration
    Examine the MACs configuration directive in the SSH config file. Look for any entries containing md5, sha1, or deprecated hash algorithms in the MACs line.
    Affected if Weak MAC algorithms such as hmac-md5, hmac-sha1, or their variants are listed in the MACs configuration

The device is affected if it runs firmware version below 2.4.1 on a Sick LMS1000 or MRS1000, has SSH enabled, and the SSH configuration includes weak MAC algorithms (md5, sha1, or variants).

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.

dbcve · scoped
Upgrade available Upgrade to 2.4.1 or later
Fixed in 2.4.1
Interim mitigation

Disable weak MAC algorithms (such as md5, sha1, and their variants) in the SSH service configuration and restrict to strong MAC algorithms like hmac-sha2-256 and hmac-sha2-512, then restart the SSH service and verify connectivity.

Recommended fix High confidence

Firmware 2.4.1

  1. Identify the affected device model (LMS1000 or MRS1000) in your environment
  2. Check the current firmware version of the device
  3. Navigate to SICK's official support website and download firmware version 2.4.1 or later for your specific device model
  4. Follow SICK's documented firmware update procedure for the LMS1000 or MRS1000 device
  5. After completing the firmware upgrade, verify the SSH service no longer uses weak MAC algorithms by reviewing the SSH configuration
