`  
ABB Cylon Aspect 3.07.02 (sshUpdate.php) Unauthenticated Remote SSH Service Control  
  
  
Vendor: ABB Ltd.  
Product web page: https://www.global.abb  
Affected version: NEXUS Series, MATRIX-2 Series, ASPECT-Enterprise, ASPECT-Studio  
Firmware: <=3.07.02  
  
Summary: ASPECT is an award-winning scalable building energy management  
and control solution designed to allow users seamless access to their  
building data through standard building protocols including smart devices.  
  
Desc: The BMS/BAS controller suffers from a vulnerability that allows an  
unauthenticated attacker to enable or disable the SSH daemon by sending a  
POST request to sshUpdate.php with a simple JSON payload. This can be exploited  
to start the SSH service on the remote host without proper authentication,  
potentially enabling unauthorized access or stop and deny service access.
