CVE-2017-6018: An open redirect issue was discovered in B.

An open redirect issue was discovered in B. Braun Medical SpaceCom module, which is integrated into the SpaceStation docking station: SpaceStation with SpaceCom module (integrated as part number 8713142U), software versions prior to Version 012U000040, and SpaceStation (part number 8713140U) with installed SpaceCom module (part number 8713160U), software versions prior to Version 012U000040. The web server of the affected product accepts untrusted input which could allow attackers to redirect the request to an unintended URL contained within untrusted input.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

CVE-2017-6018 is an open redirect in the B. Braun Medical SpaceCom web server used with SpaceStation docking stations. An attacker could craft a link that sends a user to an unintended URL. The source bundle does not show device takeover or patient-impact evidence.

Executive priority

Treat as a targeted medical-device hygiene issue, not an emergency based on available evidence. Prioritize inventory and vendor-guided update planning for affected SpaceCom deployments.

Technical view

Affected SpaceCom web server versions before 012U000040 accept untrusted input for redirects, matching CWE-601. Impact is primarily trust abuse, phishing, or navigation to attacker-controlled sites through a legitimate device interface. The bundle provides no CVSS score and no proof of active exploitation.

Likely exposure

Exposure is limited to B. Braun Medical SpaceCom modules integrated in or installed with specified SpaceStation docking station part numbers, running software before Version 012U000040.

Exploitation context

The CVE is not in KEV, and the provided sources do not cite active exploitation. Exploitation would require a reachable affected web server and a user or workflow that follows a crafted redirect.

Researcher notes

Evidence is narrow: affected products, version threshold, CWE-601, and redirect behavior are documented, but severity, CVSS metrics, exploit maturity, and detailed remediation are not included in the bundle.

Mitigation direction

  • Inventory SpaceStation systems with SpaceCom modules and recorded part numbers.
  • Compare SpaceCom software versions against Version 012U000040.
  • Use B. Braun or ICS-CERT guidance for approved update or remediation steps.
  • Limit SpaceCom web server access to trusted clinical engineering networks where operationally feasible.

Validation and detection

  • Confirm whether part numbers 8713142U, 8713140U, or 8713160U are present.
  • Record the installed SpaceCom software version for each device.
  • Check whether any affected web interfaces are reachable from untrusted networks.
  • Review logs or proxy data for suspicious redirect patterns if available.

URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect')

URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect') represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
