MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Credential Access The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | The Node-RED plugin must be installed on SIP - this is explicitly described as optional and is therefore a non-default deployment condition that substantially limits the exposed population. When present, the plugin endpoint accepts a caller-controlled callback URL without validating the destination host, and the known default passphrase 'opendoor' provides an effective authentication bypass. The CVSS 4.0 vector PR:N confirms unauthenticated exploitation is possible once the plugin is present. Exploitation is limited to: (1) instances with the Node-RED plugin installed, and (2) instances where the default passphrase has not been changed. Deployments without the Node-RED plugin are not affected. No user interaction is required and the attack is network-reachable (AV:N), meaning any attacker with HTTP access to the SIP device's callback endpoint can trigger the SSRF. |
| Impact | The CVSS 4.0 score of 6.3 (Medium) with vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N reflects an important nuance: AT:P indicates a specific attack requirement - the Node-RED plugin must be installed. This is the primary limiter and is explicitly non-default. Impact is confined to subsequent systems (SC:L/SI:L), as the vulnerable system itself has no direct C/I/A impact - characteristic of SSRF as an internal-pivoting primitive rather than a direct RCE or data-theft vector. No EPSS data was provided; no KEV listing exists, suggesting exploitation is not yet widespread. However, the publicly available POC from ZeroScience and the hardcoded default passphrase 'opendoor' significantly lower the exploitation bar for any attacker who can identify an exposed SIP instance with Node-RED enabled. The overall risk profile is elevated above the raw score for deployments running the Node-RED plugin with the default passphrase unchanged, and reduced substantially for those not running the plugin at all. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker discovers an internet-exposed SIP device with the Node-RED plugin installed and authenticates (or bypasses authentication) using the default passphrase 'opendoor'. They submit a crafted HTTP request to the callback URL endpoint specifying an internal RFC-1918 address - for example, a management interface on the local 192.168.x.x subnet - causing SIP to issue a blind HTTP request to that internal host. The attacker can enumerate internal services, probe for unauthenticated management consoles, or chain the SSRF into further exploitation of systems unreachable from the public internet. A public POC demonstrating this technique is available via ZeroScience advisory ZSL-2026-5998. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 14, 2026
Server-side request forgery in Sustainable Irrigation Platform (SIP) through version 5.2.16 allows unauthenticated network attackers to weaponize the device as an HTTP proxy against internal or external hosts. Exploitation requires the optional Node-RED plugin to be installed and leverages the known default passphrase 'opendoor' to bypass authentication to the plugin interface - dramatically lowering the practical barrier for blind SSRF. A publicly available proof-of-concept exploit exists per ZeroScience advisory ZSL-2026-5998; no CISA KEV listing at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch version is confirmed from available data - the ZeroScience and VulnCheck advisories do not reference a fixed release. Until a patch is issued, the primary compensating control is to disable or uninstall the Node-RED plugin entirely if not operationally required, which eliminates the vulnerable callback URL endpoint. Where the plugin must remain active, immediately change the default passphrase 'opendoor' to a strong, unique value to reduce the authentication bypass risk. Additionally, implement egress firewall rules on the SIP device to restrict outbound HTTP connections to only known, necessary destinations, preventing SSRF from being used to probe internal networks. Network segmentation that places SIP devices on isolated VLANs with no internet egress provides further containment. Monitor for unexpected outbound HTTP traffic from SIP hosts as a detection signal. Refer to https://www.zeroscience.mk/#/advisories/ZSL-2026-5998 for technical details that may inform additional hardening.

Technical ContextAI · show details
SIP (cpe:2.3:a:dan-in-ca:sip:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is an open-source irrigation controller platform developed by dan-in-ca, commonly deployed in IoT and smart-agriculture contexts. The optional Node-RED plugin - a popular flow-based automation runtime used extensively in IoT stacks - exposes a callback URL endpoint that SIP processes without validating the destination host or scheme. CWE-918 (Server-Side Request Forgery) describes this root cause: the server constructs and issues an outbound HTTP request using attacker-controlled input, enabling internal network pivoting. Compounding the issue, the Node-RED plugin ships with or defaults to the passphrase 'opendoor', eliminating any meaningful authentication barrier for remote exploitation of that endpoint.

DescriptionCVE.org
Sustainable Irrigation Platform (SIP) through version 5.2.16 contains a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to make the device issue arbitrary HTTP requests by supplying a malicious callback URL when the optional Node-RED plugin is installed. Attackers can exploit the lack of destination validation and the default passphrase 'opendoor' to send blind HTTP requests to arbitrary internal or external hosts not otherwise directly accessible.
