When Your Energy Controller Goes Rogue: The Hilarious Downside of Missing Authentication
View CSAF: A critical vulnerability in ASKI Energy’s ALS-mini-S4/S8 IP devices leaves them as secure as a screen door on a submarine. With no authentication in place, attackers can waltz in and reconfigure at will. Mitigations? Well, if it’s not in use, just unplug it. Problem solved!
Hot Take:
Looks like ASKI Energy’s products are really “mini” on security! With vulnerabilities so glaring, even your grandma’s toaster might be more secure. Maybe it’s time for a retirement party for these old devices, or at least a heavy-duty firewall.
Key Points:
- Critical vulnerability in ASKI Energy products with a CVSS score of 9.9.
- Attackers can remotely exploit this vulnerability due to missing authentication.
- Affected products include ALS-mini-s4 and ALS-mini-s8 with specific serial numbers.
