The ABB Cylon Aspect BAS controller is vulnerable to an authenticated hybrid path traversal vulnerability in logYumLookup.php due to insufficient validation of the logFile parameter. The script checks for the presence of an expected path (/var/log/yum.log) using strpos(), which can be bypassed by appending directory traversal sequences. This allows an authenticated attacker to read arbitrary files on the system, potentially exposing sensitive configuration files, credentials, or logs. The issue stems from a lack of proper path normalization and strict path validation, enabling attackers to escape the intended directory restriction.

ABB Cylon Aspect MIX's NTPServlet allows NTP config changes via the Host: 127.0.0.1 bypass, writing attacker-controlled hosts to NTPTickers and syncing the system clock. A malicious NTP server can manipulate time, enabling DoS or time-based attacks.

ABB Cylon Aspect BMS/BAS is vulnerable to a critical flaw in the AuthenticatedHttpServlet within its application server, enabling remote attackers to bypass authentication by setting the Host: 127.0.0.1 header. This deceives the server into processing requests as if they originate from localhost, granting unauthorized access to privileged operations. This bypass grants access to privileged functionality, including the HTTPDownloadServlet, which is vulnerable to directory traversal. By leveraging this, an attacker can delete arbitrary PHP files outside the intended directory scope.

The ABB BMS/BAS controller suffers from an authenticated blind OS command injection vulnerability. This can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary shell commands through the 'instance' HTTP POST parameter called by the productRemovalUpdate.php script. The token (key POST param) needs to be set to 159 to trigger the command execution.

ABB Cylon Aspect MIX's IPConfigServlet allows unauthenticated network config changes via the Host: 127.0.0.1 bypass, writing to /etc/hosts and config files. Attackers can redirect traffic (e.g. localhost to 1.2.3.4) or disrupt connectivity, amplifying impact with network restarts.

ABB Cylon Aspect BMS/BAS is vulnerable to a critical flaw in the AuthenticatedHttpServlet within its application server, enabling remote attackers to bypass authentication by setting the Host: 127.0.0.1 header. This deceives the server into processing requests as if they originate from localhost, granting unauthorized access to privileged operations. This bypass grants access to privileged functionality, including the DeplomentServlet, which is vulnerable to directory traversal. By leveraging this, an attacker can write arbitrary PHP files outside the intended directory scope. When combined, these issues allow remote attackers to upload a malicious PHP shell and execute system commands with the privileges of the web server, leading to full system compromise.

Multiple PHP and Java components across the system fail to properly sanitize user-supplied input before including it in application logs. In PHP, files like supervisorProxy.php directly embed values such as $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] and raw POST bodies into log messages without filtering, enabling attackers to inject arbitrary log entries using encoded newline characters. Similarly, Java classes using LoggerUtil.logger.* methods concatenate user-controlled strings like usernames and cookie keys into logs without validation. This systemic flaw allows for log forging, manipulating log content to obfuscate activity, insert misleading entries, or facilitate follow-up attacks.

The ABB BMS/BAS controller is vulnerable to code execution and sudo misconfiguration flaws. An authenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the firmware update mechanism allows an attacker with valid credentials to escalate privileges and execute commands as root. The process involves uploading a crafted .bsx file through projectUpdateBSXFileProcess.php, which is then moved to htmlroot and executed by projectUpdateBSXExecute.php. This script leverages sudo to run the uploaded bsx file, enabling the attacker to bypass input validation checks and execute arbitrary code, leading to full system compromise and unauthorized root access.

The ABB BMS/BAS controller suffers from an authenticated blind OS command injection vulnerability. This can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary shell commands through the 'instance' HTTP POST parameter called by the logMixDownload.php script and dependant on SELECTED=ALL case.

The U.S. government today unsealed criminal charges against 16 individuals accused of operating and selling DanaBot, a prolific strain of information-stealing malware that has been sold on Russian cybercrime forums since 2018. The FBI says a newer version of DanaBot was used for espionage, and that many of the defendants exposed their real-life identities after accidentally infecting their own systems with the malware.
