The ugw-logread method allows a remote attacker with user privileges to access arbitrary local files due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input.
AnalysisAI
Path traversal in MBS industrial gateway products (Single-A, Double-A, Single-X, Double-X series) allows authenticated remote attackers to read arbitrary files on the device via the ugw-logread method. CVSS 4.0 score of 8.7 reflects network-reachable exploitation with only low-privilege user credentials needed, exposing potentially sensitive configuration, credential, and operational data on industrial protocol gateways. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.
Technical ContextAI
The affected MBS product line consists of protocol gateways that bridge fieldbus and building-automation networks (Profibus, Profinet, CAN, KNX, DALI, LON, M-Bus, X-Link) to higher-level IP networks, commonly deployed in industrial control and building-management environments. The flaw resides in the ugw-logread method, a log-retrieval interface in the MBS UGW (Universal Gateway) firmware that fails to sanitize user-supplied path input. This is a textbook CWE-22 (Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory) issue, where path components such as '../' traversal sequences allow the application to resolve and return files outside the intended log directory.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis from the provided input; consult the CERT@VDE advisory at https://www.certvde.com/en/advisories/VDE-2026-039/ for the authoritative fixed firmware versions for each MBS gateway model and apply the vendor-supplied firmware update once available. As compensating controls until patched, restrict network access to the gateway management/web interface to a dedicated management VLAN or jump host (this may complicate legitimate remote administration), rotate and enforce strong unique credentials on all gateway user accounts to raise the bar on the PR:L prerequisite, disable or remove unused low-privilege user accounts that could be leveraged for the ugw-logread call, and monitor gateway access logs for unusual log-read requests or path patterns containing traversal sequences.
