Summary

Schneider Electric's homeLYnk (Wiser For KNX) and spaceLYnk building management systems contain multiple vulnerabilities related to cryptographic implementation, credential handling, and information disclosure (CWE-269, CWE-347, CWE-522, CWE-327, CWE-200). These flaws could allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access to the product and potentially modify building control functions. homeLYnk is a personalized energy efficiency solution supporting KNX, Modbus, BACnet, and IP protocols. spaceLYnk is a building management platform for small-to-large commercial buildings.

What this means
What could happen
An attacker could gain unauthorized remote access to homeLYnk or spaceLYnk building management systems, potentially allowing them to read sensitive data or modify building control settings like HVAC and lighting systems.
Who's at risk
Building managers and facility operators using Schneider Electric homeLYnk (Wiser For KNX) or spaceLYnk systems for energy management, HVAC control, or integrated building automation in small-to-large buildings should prioritize updates. This affects any organization managing heating, cooling, lighting, or other building systems through these products.
How it could be exploited
An attacker with local access to the device (or remote access if the management interface is exposed to the network) could exploit multiple cryptographic and credential handling flaws to authenticate without valid credentials or intercept sensitive data, then gain remote access to the product's command interface.
Prerequisites
  • Local or remote access to the homeLYnk or spaceLYnk device interface
  • The device must be running firmware version 2.60 or earlier
