Republished vendor advisory. This CISA CSAF advisory was converted from ABB PSIRT's CSAF advisory.
Workarounds: The vulnerability is only present when the REST interface is enabled. Only enable the REST interface when needed for the configuration of MQTT. Ensure that the REST interface is disabled after finishing configuring MQTT utilities.
Mitigating factors: ABB recommends disabling the REST interface when not being used to configure the MQTT functionality. By default, the REST interface is disabled so no risk is present. The RMC-100 is not intended for access over public networks such as the internet. An attacker would need to have access to the customer’s private control network to exploit this vulnerability. Proper network segmentation is recommended. Refer to section “General security recommendations” for further advise on how to keep your system secure.
