Incorrect Authorization vulnerability in ABB T-MAC Plus.
This issue affects T-MAC Plus: 4.0-24.
AnalysisAI
Authorization bypass in ABB T-MAC Plus version 4.0-24 allows adjacent-network attackers to perform unauthorized actions that compromise device integrity and availability without any credentials or user interaction. The flaw is an incorrect authorization weakness (CWE-863) carrying a CVSS 4.0 score of 7.2, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. ABB itself disclosed the issue and published an advisory describing the affected firmware.
Technical ContextAI
T-MAC Plus is an ABB industrial measurement/automation device commonly deployed in operational technology (OT) and industrial control environments. CWE-863 (Incorrect Authorization) indicates that the device performs an authorization check but reaches the wrong conclusion - typically permitting actions a user or peer should not be allowed to take, rather than failing to check authorization entirely (which would be CWE-862). The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:abb:t-mac_plus identifies the affected firmware/application running on the device, and the CVSS attack vector of Adjacent (AV:A) indicates the flaw is reachable from the same logical Layer-2/Bluetooth/limited broadcast segment the device sits on, consistent with how field devices are typically networked.
RemediationAI
Patch availability is not explicitly enumerated in the provided intelligence - consult the ABB advisory at https://search.abb.com/library/Download.aspx?DocumentID=9AKK108472A7840&LanguageCode=en&DocumentPartId=&Action=Launch for the fixed firmware version and apply it during the next maintenance window using ABB's documented upgrade procedure. Until the patch is deployed, restrict logical network access to T-MAC Plus devices by placing them on a dedicated OT VLAN behind a firewall or data diode, enforce ISA/IEC 62443 zone-and-conduit segmentation so only engineering workstations on the same trusted segment can reach the device (trade-off: legitimate adjacent management tools must be allow-listed), and enable monitoring on the OT segment to alert on unexpected configuration or command traffic to the device (trade-off: increases SOC noise but provides detection in the absence of a patch). Avoid exposing the device to general corporate or wireless segments where attackers could gain adjacent-network reachability.
