ICSA-25-182-05: Voltronic Power and PowerShield UPS monitoring software ↗ source

July 1, 2025 CISA ICS Advisory

Summary

Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow an unauthenticated attacker remotely to make configuration changes, resulting in shutting down UPS connected devices or execution of arbitrary code. CVE-2022-31491: The UPS management software normally allows a properly authenticated and authorized user using a web interface to configure the system to run a single OS command of the users choosing when the software detects a managed UPS is shutting down. A related critical underlying function is exposed over the network with no authentication or authorization allowing an attacker to use this to run arbitrary code immediately regardless of any managed UPS state or presence. CVE-2021-43110: The UPS management software is supposed to only allow a properly authenticated and authorized admin user using a web interface to configure the system. An unauthenticated remote attacker can make changes to the system including: changing the web interface admin password, view/change system configuration, enumerate connected UPS devices and shut down connected UPS devices.
