VAR-202505-4072

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-06-26 23:37

DLL's are not digitally signed when loaded in ASPECT's configuration toolset exposing the application to binary planting during device commissioning.This issue affects ASPECT-Enterprise: through 3.; NEXUS Series: through 3.; MATRIX Series: through 3.*. ABB ASPECT-Enterprise is a scalable building energy management and control solution. ABB NEXUS Series is a monitoring and management system. ABB MATRIX Series is an embedded IoT ASPECT control engine designed to provide flexible field control for medium to large field control applications.

ABB has a code issue vulnerability in many products, which is caused by an uncontrolled search path element defect. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
