Summary
BACnet® Smart Building Controllers. ABB's BACnet portfolio features a series of BACnet® IP and BACnet MS/TP field controllers for ASPECT® and INTEGRA™ building management solutions. ABB BACnet controllers are designed for intelligent control of HVAC equipment such as central plant, boilers, chillers, cooling towers, heat pump systems, air handling units (constant volume, variable air volume, and multi-zone), rooftop units, electrical systems such as lighting control, variable frequency drives and metering.The FLXeon Controller Series uses BACnet/IP standards to deliver unprecedented connectivity and open integration for your building automation systems. It's scalable, and modular, allowing you to control a diverse range of HVAC functions.
Description
The ABB Cylon FLXeon BACnet controller's /api/variant endpoint exposes sensitive system information, including the internal IP address, MAC address, device model, and build type, without requiring authentication. The get() function gathers network interface data using the os.networkInterfaces() API and returns it in the HTTP response, potentially allowing unauthenticated clients to fingerprint internal infrastructure and gain insight into the device's network configuration and hardware characteristics.Vendor
