Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in RobNetScanHost.exe in ABB Robot Communications Runtime before 5.14.02, as used in ABB Interlink Module, IRC5 OPC Server, PC SDK, PickMaster 3 and 5, RobView 5, RobotStudio, WebWare SDK, and WebWare Server, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted (1) 0xA or (2) 0xE Netscan packet.
For ABB products ABB Ability™ System 800xA and related system extensions versions 5.1, 6.0 and 6.1, Compact HMI versions 5.1 and 6.0, Control Builder Safe 1.0, 1.1 and 2.0, Symphony Plus -S+ Operations 3.0 to 3.2 Symphony Plus -S+ Engineering 1.1 to 2.2, Composer Harmony 5.1, 6.0 and 6.1, Melody Composer 5.3, 6.1/6.2 and SPE for Melody 1.0SPx (Composer 6.3), Harmony OPC Server (HAOPC) Standalone 6.0, 6.1 and 7.0, ABB Ability™ System 800xA/ Advant® OCS Control Builder A 1.3 and 1.4, Advant® OCS AC100 OPC Server 5.1, 6.0 and 6.1, Composer CTK 6.1 and 6.2, AdvaBuild 3.7 SP1 and SP2, OPCServer for MOD 300 (non-800xA) 1.4, OPC Data Link 2.1 and 2.2, Knowledge Manager 8.0, 9.0 and 9.1, Manufacturing Operations Management 1812 and 1909, confidential data is written in an unprotected file. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take full control of the computer.
Buffer overflow in x87 before 3.5.5 in ABB Process Communication Unit 400 (PCU400) 4.4 through 4.6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted packet using the (1) IEC60870-5-101 or (2) IEC60870-5-104 communication protocol to the X87 web interface.
A S+ Operations and S+ Historian service is subject to a DoS by special crafted messages. An attacker might use this flaw to make it crash or even execute arbitrary code on the machine where the service is hosted.
A vulnerability exists in the HCI Modbus TCP function included in the product versions listed above. If the HCI Modbus TCP is en-abled and configured, an attacker could exploit the vulnerability by sending a specially crafted message to the RTU500, causing the receiving RTU500 CMU to reboot. The vulnerability is caused by the validation error in the length information carried in MBAP header in the HCI Modbus TCP function.

Use of Hard-coded Credentials vulnerability in ABB ASPECT-Enterprise, ABB NEXUS Series, ABB MATRIX Series.This issue affects ASPECT-Enterprise: through 3.; NEXUS Series: through 3.; MATRIX Series: through 3..
IRC5 exposes an ftp server (port 21). Upon attempting to gain access you are challenged with a request of username and password, however you can input whatever you like. As long as the field isn't empty it will be accepted.
The IRC5 family with UAS service enabled comes by default with credentials that can be found on publicly available manuals. ABB considers this a well documented functionality that helps customer set up however, out of our research, we found multiple production systems running these exact default credentials and consider thereby this an exposure that should be mitigated. Moreover, future deployments should consider that these defaults should be forbidden (user should be forced to change them).
For the Central Licensing Server component used in ABB products ABB Ability™ System 800xA and related system extensions versions 5.1, 6.0 and 6.1, Compact HMI versions 5.1 and 6.0, Control Builder Safe 1.0, 1.1 and 2.0, Symphony Plus -S+ Operations 3.0 to 3.2 Symphony Plus -S+ Engineering 1.1 to 2.2, Composer Harmony 5.1, 6.0 and 6.1, Melody Composer 5.3, 6.1/6.2 and SPE for Melody 1.0SPx (Composer 6.3), Harmony OPC Server (HAOPC) Standalone 6.0, 6.1 and 7.0, ABB Ability™ System 800xA/ Advant® OCS Control Builder A 1.3 and 1.4, Advant® OCS AC100 OPC Server 5.1, 6.0 and 6.1, Composer CTK 6.1 and 6.2, AdvaBuild 3.7 SP1 and SP2, OPCServer for MOD 300 (non-800xA) 1.4, OPC Data Link 2.1 and 2.2, Knowledge Manager 8.0, 9.0 and 9.1, Manufacturing Operations Management 1812 and 1909, ABB AbilityTM SCADAvantage versions 5.1 to 5.6.5. an XML External Entity Injection vulnerability exists that allows an attacker to read or call arbitrary files from the license server and/or from the network and also block the license handling.
The web server in ABB Telephone Gateway TG/S 3.2 and Busch-Jaeger 6186/11 Telefon-Gateway allows access to different endpoints of the application without authenticating by accessing a specific uniform resource locator (URL) , violating the access-control (ACL) rules. This issue allows obtaining sensitive information that may aid in further attacks and privilege escalation.
In ABB SREA-01 revisions A, B, C: application versions up to 3.31.5, and SREA-50 revision A: application versions up to 3.32.8, an attacker may access internal files of ABB SREA-01 and SREA-50 legacy remote monitoring tools without any authorization over the network using a HTTP request which refers to files using ../../ relative paths. Once the internal password file is retrieved, the password hash can be identified using a brute force attack. There is also an exploit allowing running of commands after authorization.
A Missing Authentication vulnerability in RobotWare for the OmniCore robot controller allows an attacker to read and modify files on the robot controller if the attacker has access to the Connected Services Gateway Ethernet port.
In S+ Operations and S+ Historian, a successful SQL injection exploit can read sensitive data from the database, modify database data (Insert/Update/Delete), execute administration operations on the database (such as shutdown the DBMS), recover the content of a given file present on the DBMS file system and in some cases issue commands to the operating system. This can lead to a loss of confidentiality and data integrity or even affect the product behavior and its availability.
The affected versions of S+ Operations (version 2.1 SP1 and earlier) used an approach for user authentication which relies on validation at the client node (client-side authentication). This is not as secure as having the server validate a client application before allowing a connection. Therefore, if the network communication or endpoints for these applications are not protected, unauthorized actors can bypass authentication and make unauthorized connections to the server application.
In S+ Operations and S+ History, it is possible that an unauthenticated user could inject values to the Operations History server (or standalone S+ History server) and ultimately write values to the controlled process.
In all versions of ABB Power Generation Information Manager (PGIM) and Plant Connect, the affected product is vulnerable to authentication bypass, which may allow an attacker to remotely bypass authentication and extract credentials from the affected device.
A vulnerability in Base Software for SoftControl allows an attacker to insert and run arbitrary code in a computer running the affected product. This issue affects: .
