ABB Cylon Aspect 3.08.03 (MIX->NTPServlet) Time Manipulation
    
    
    Vendor: ABB Ltd.
    Product web page: https://www.global.abb
    Affected version: NEXUS Series, MATRIX-2 Series, ASPECT-Enterprise, ASPECT-Studio
                      Firmware: <=3.08.03
    
    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: ABB Cylon Aspect MIX's NTPServlet allows NTP config changes via the
    Host: 127.0.0.1 bypass, writing attacker-controlled hosts to NTPTickers
    and syncing the system clock. A malicious NTP server can manipulate time,
    enabling DoS or time-based attacks.
