## Basic Information
|
|
|
|
OPC UA stands for Open Platform Communications Unified Access. It is a long-standing open-source protocol for data exchange, telemetry collection, and control of industrial equipment. It is very widely used in industrial settings including Manufacturing, Energy, Aerospace, and Defence. It is the only standardized way of communicating with PLCs and allows the equipment of different vendors to communicate with each other.
|
|
|
|
OPC UA is very flexible in terms of configuration. It can be configured to be extremely secure, or insecure. Many times the security features are disabled to allow communication with older devices. Testing the configuration for weaknesses can therefore reveal easy entry to critical systems.
|
|
|
|
Network scanners do not recognize OPC UA, thus discovery may require some work if nonstandard ports are used.
|
|
|
|
**Default port:** 4840
|
|
|
|
```text

|
PORT STATE SERVICE REASON
|
|
4840/tcp open unknown syn-ack
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Pentesting OPC UA
|
|
|
|
To reveal security issues in OPC UA servers, scan it with [OpalOPC](https://opalopc.com/).
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
opalopc -vv opc.tcp://$target_ip_or_hostname:$target_port
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Exploiting vulnerabilities
|
|
|
|
**⚠️ Warning ⚠️**: Poking around without knowing what you are doing may cause serious health hazards to people and monetary losses to your client
|
|
|
|
If authentication bypass vulnerabilities are found, you can configure an [OPC UA client](https://www.prosysopc.com/products/opc-ua-browser/) accordingly and see what you can access. This may allow anything from merely reading process values to actually operating heavy-duty industrial equipment.
|
|
|
|
To get a clue of the device you have access to, read the "ServerStatus" node values in the address space and google for a usage manual.
