TL;DR: We identified 36,872 internet-exposed BMCs, and 24,650 of them disclosed password-derived authentication hashes before login because of CVE-2013-4786. More than 30% of the returned hashes were linked to passwords that could be recovered using common wordlists or predictable factory password formats. The exposure affected modern Supermicro and HPE servers, including systems operated by GPU providers. The bigger risk is that a compromised BMC gives an attacker highly privileged access below the operating system. Because BMC management networks are often poorly segmented and lightly monitored, one exposed interface can become a foothold into broader data center infrastructure. We also created an interactive map where you can explore the exposed systems: https://lavahq.io/bmcradar

Supermicro (SMC) SMASH services contain an Arbitrary code execution issue in X14DBG-DAP and X14DBI. An authorized attacker can exploit SMASH’s input capability to compromise data integrity or launch a Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack against the BMC.
There is a vulnerability in the Supermicro BMC SMTP service at Supermicro AS-2115HS-TNR. An attacker may obtain administrator privileges and inject specially crafted characters into the SMTP service configuration. This may cause the underlying system to execute unintended commands during process invocation.
Potential impact includes denial-of-service attacks, arbitrary code execution, or permanent compromise of the controller.
There is a vulnerability in the Supermicro BMC firmware validation logic at Supermicro MBD-X13SEM-F . An attacker can update the system firmware with a specially crafted image.
There is a vulnerability in the Supermicro BMC firmware validation logic at Supermicro MBD-X12STW-F . An attacker can update the system firmware with a specially crafted image.
There is a vulnerability in the Supermicro BMC web function at Supermicro MBD-X13SEDW-F. After logging into the BMC Web server, an attacker can use a specially crafted payload to trigger the Stack buffer overflow vulnerability.
Stack buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Supermicro BMC Shared library. An authenticated attacker with access to the BMC exploit stack buffer via a crafted header and achieve arbitrary code execution of the BMC’s firmware operating system.
There is a vulnerability in the Supermicro BMC web function at Supermicro MBD-X13SEDW-F. After logging into the BMC Web server, an attacker can use a specially crafted payload to trigger the Stack buffer overflow vulnerability.
Stack-based buffer overflow in the SMASH-CLP shell. An authenticated attacker with SSH access to the BMC can exploit a stack buffer overflow via a crafted SMASH command, overwrite the return address and registers, and achieve arbitrary code execution on the BMC firmware operating system
Supermicro BMC Insyde SMASH shell program has a stacked-based overflow vulnerability
There is a vulnerability in the Supermicro BMC firmware validation logic at Supermicro MBD-X12STW . An attacker can update the system firmware with a specially crafted image.
There is a vulnerability in the Supermicro BMC firmware validation logic at Supermicro MBD-X13SEM-F . An attacker can update the system firmware with a specially crafted image.
A security issue in the firmware image verification implementation at Supermicro MBD-X12DPG-OA6 . An attacker with administrator privileges can upload a specially crafted image, which can cause a stack overflow due to the unchecked fat->fsd.maxfld.
A security issue in the firmware image verification implementation
at Supermicro MBD-X12DPG-OA6. An attacker can upload a specially crafted image that will cause a stack overflow is caused by not checking fld->usedbytes.
There is a vulnerability in the BMC firmware image authentication design
at Supermicro MBD-X12DPG-OA6
. An attacker can modify the firmware to bypass BMC inspection and bypass the signature verification process
