ABB : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In 2020 (Gain Privilege)

Vulnerabilities in the S+ Operations and S+ Historian web applications can lead to a possible code execution and privilege escalation, redirect the user somewhere else or download unwanted data.

In Symphony Plus Operations and Symphony Plus Historian, some services can be vulnerable to privilege escalation attacks. An unprivileged (but authenticated) user could execute arbitrary code and result in privilege escalation, depending on the user that the service runs as.

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 S+ Operations and S+ Historian, not all client commands correctly check user permission as expected. Authenticated but Unauthorized remote users could execute a Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack, execute arbitrary code, or obtain more privilege than intended on the machines.

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 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.
