Team82 has developed a novel technique called the Evil PLC Attack in which programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are weaponized and used to compromise engineering workstations. An attacker with a foothold on an engineering workstation can have access to anything else on the OT network to which an engineer connects that machine, including other PLCs.
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of ALGO 8180 IP Audio Alerter devices. Authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the web-based user interface. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to execute a system call. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the device.
Given the nature of the vulnerability, the only salient mitigation strategy is to restrict interaction with the product.
CVSS v3: 7.2
