Honeywell Security Flaw: How Ping Became a Hacker’s Best Friend!

Honeywell MB Secure has a hidden talent: executing any OS command with root permissions. Just sprinkle a few semicolons into the web interface, and voilà! You’re the device’s new master. Not the kind of feature you’d expect, right? Patch it up with MB-Secure v12.53 or MB-Secure PRO v03.09, pronto!

Hot Take:

When it comes to Honeywell’s MB-Secure, it seems security was more of a suggestion than a feature. With authenticated command injection vulnerabilities, it’s like they’ve decided to play ping-pong with hackers, except the ball is your data and the paddles are semicolons. Time to patch up and stop living life on the edge—of a security breach!

Key Points:

  • Honeywell MB-Secure devices are vulnerable to authenticated command injection.
  • The vulnerability affects MB-Secure versions up to V12.53 and MB-Secure PRO up to V03.09.
  • Attackers can execute OS-level commands using the “ping” function.
  • The critical flaw is identified as CVE-2025-2605.
  • Honeywell has released patches to address the issue.
