ABB Cylon’s Comedy of Errors: Remote Code Execution Takes Center Stage!
Hold onto your hard hats! ABB Cylon Aspect 4.00.00 is a building management hero with a blind spot—a remote code execution vulnerability. Attackers can slip through a tiny factory-phase window and inject chaos. It’s a bit like leaving your doors wide open during a storm while you’re busy fixing the roof!

Hot Take:
Oh, ABB, you’re making it way too easy for the cyber baddies! It’s like leaving your front door wide open with a neon sign saying ‘Come on in, hackers!’ Time to get some digital locks on those doors before your Aspect system becomes a free-for-all playground.
Key Points:
- ABB Cylon Aspect BMS/BAS controllers have a vulnerability that allows remote code execution.
- The flaw exists in the factorySetSerialNum.php script and affects versions up to 4.00.00.
- Unauthenticated attackers can execute arbitrary shell commands via unsanitized POST parameters.
- The vulnerability is tied to the manufacturing phase when test scripts are temporarily accessible.
- Safety measures are needed to close the door on potential cyber intrusions.
