ABB Cylon Aspect 3.08.01 Remote Code Execution
ABB Cylon Aspect version 3.08.01 BMS/BAS controller suffers from a remote code execution vulnerability. The vulnerable uploadFile() function in bigUpload.php improperly reads raw POST data using the php://input wrapper without sufficient validation. This data is passed to the fwrite() function, allowing arbitrary file writes. Combined with an improper sanitization of file paths, this leads to directory traversal, allowing an attacker to upload malicious files to arbitrary locations. Once a malicious file is written to an executable directory, an authenticated attacker can trigger the file to execute code and gain unauthorized access to the building controller.

Vendor: ABB Ltd.
Product web page: https://www.global.abb
Affected version: NEXUS Series, MATRIX-2 Series, ASPECT-Enterprise, ASPECT-Studio
Firmware: <=3.08.01
Summary: ASPECT is an award-winning scalable building energy management
and control solution designed to allow users seamless access to their
building data through standard building protocols including smart devices.
Desc: The ABB BMS/BAS controller suffers from a remote code execution
vulnerability. The vulnerable uploadFile() function in bigUpload.php
improperly reads raw POST data using the php://input wrapper without
sufficient validation. This data is passed to the fwrite() function,
allowing arbitrary file writes. Combined with an improper sanitization
of file paths, this leads to directory traversal, allowing an attacker
to upload malicious files to arbitrary locations. Once a malicious file
is written to an executable directory, an authenticated attacker can
trigger the file to execute code and gain unauthorized access to the
building controller.
