CISA warns of a high-severity DoS vulnerability in RISS SRL MOMA Seismic Station, allowing unauthenticated attackers to disrupt operations. Patch immediately.

Critical DoS Vulnerability in RISS SRL MOMA Seismic Station

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has disclosed a high-severity vulnerability in RISS SRL MOMA Seismic Station that could enable unauthenticated attackers to trigger a denial-of-service (DoS) condition. The flaw, tracked under ICSA-26-034-03, affects operational technology (OT) environments relying on seismic monitoring systems.

Technical Details

The vulnerability impacts the following versions of MOMA Seismic Station software:

  • MOMA Seis (specific versions not disclosed in the advisory)

Successful exploitation requires no authentication, allowing remote attackers to disrupt seismic monitoring operations. While CISA has not released full technical details, the advisory suggests the flaw may stem from improper input validation or resource management in the affected software.

For further technical analysis, refer to the CSAF (Common Security Advisory Framework) document.

Impact Analysis

Seismic monitoring stations are critical for earthquake detection, early warning systems, and industrial safety in sectors such as energy, transportation, and civil infrastructure. A DoS attack could:

  • Disable real-time monitoring, delaying emergency responses.
  • Disrupt automated safety protocols, increasing risks in seismic-prone regions.
  • Impact industrial control systems (ICS) integrated with seismic data.

Given the potential consequences, organizations using affected versions should prioritize remediation to prevent operational disruptions.

Recommendations

CISA urges asset owners and operators to:

  1. Apply vendor-provided patches as soon as they become available.
  2. Isolate seismic monitoring systems from untrusted networks where possible.
  3. Monitor network traffic for anomalous activity targeting MOMA Seismic Station devices.
  4. Review CISA’s advisory for updates: ICSA-26-034-03.

For additional guidance, consult the CSAF document or contact RISS SRL for support.
