Summary: BACnet? Smart Building Controllers. ABB's BACnet portfolio features a
series of BACnet? IP and BACnet MS/TP field controllers for ASPECT? and INTEGRA?
building management solutions. ABB BACnet controllers are designed for intelligent
control of HVAC equipment such as central plant, boilers, chillers, cooling towers,
heat pump systems, air handling units (constant volume, variable air volume, and
multi-zone), rooftop units, electrical systems such as lighting control, variable
frequency drives and metering.
The FLXeon Controller Series uses BACnet/IP standards to deliver unprecedented
connectivity and open integration for your building automation systems. It's scalable,
and modular, allowing you to control a diverse range of HVAC functions.
Desc: The ABB Cylon FLXeon BACnet controller is vulnerable to authenticated remote
root code execution via the /api/cert endpoint. An attacker with valid credentials
can inject arbitrary system commands by manipulating the affected parameters. The
issue arises due to improper input validation in cert.js, where user-supplied data
is executed via ChildProcess.exec() without adequate sanitization.
Tested on: Linux Kernel 5.4.27
Linux Kernel 4.15.13
NodeJS/8.4.0
Express
