MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Low-privilege authenticated access to the TPDIN-Monitor-WEB3 web management interface is required, consistent with the CVSS 4.0 PR:L metric - the attacker must hold at least some valid credentials for the device. The device must be reachable over the network (AV:N); no physical proximity or local console access is required. No special non-default configuration or feature enablement is noted as a prerequisite - the vulnerability is present in the base product for all versions through 2.2.9. Exploitation is limited by the need for prior credential acquisition and by network reachability; devices placed on isolated OT segments not accessible from untrusted hosts or from the internet have significantly reduced exposure, and no user interaction on the device side is required once access conditions are met. |
| Impact | The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.6 reflects a genuinely high-impact, low-complexity attack requiring only low-privilege credentials (PR:L) over the network (AV:N). The confidentiality impact (VC:H) from credential and configuration extraction is the primary driver; the integrity impact (VI:H) is attributable to the fact that extracted credentials enable subsequent unauthorized write access and device reconfiguration. No CISA KEV listing or public proof-of-concept code has been identified, keeping this outside the immediately-exploited tier, but EPSS data was not provided so exploitation probability cannot be independently scored. The OT context is a meaningful risk amplifier: power monitoring devices are frequently internet-adjacent or accessible across flat corporate-OT network boundaries, and missing authorization bugs in ICS web interfaces are among the most commonly targeted vulnerability classes in operational technology environments - even a mid-sized municipal IT team in walbrzych managing distributed DC power infrastructure should treat this as an urgent patching priority rather than a deferred maintenance item. The PR:L requirement does limit opportunistic exploitation, as some form of credentials must first be obtained. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who has obtained low-privilege credentials to the TPDIN-Monitor-WEB3 web interface - for example, through a shared monitoring account or credential reuse from a related system - sends HTTP requests directly to administrative endpoints that lack server-side authorization enforcement. The device responds with system credentials, network configuration, or flash memory contents, which the attacker uses to escalate to full administrative control or extract network topology data for further lateral movement. No public proof-of-concept exists, but missing authorization checks in web interfaces require minimal technical skill to discover and exploit via standard HTTP proxying tools. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv2 – Sep 04, 2026
Missing authorization enforcement in Tycon Systems TPDIN-Monitor-WEB3 versions 2.2.9 and prior allows low-privilege authenticated users to access restricted endpoints and extract system credentials, device configurations, and raw flash memory contents. Disclosed by CISA ICS-CERT under advisory ICSA-26-246-08, this affects an OT-class DC power monitoring appliance where credential extraction could enable full device takeover. No active exploitation or public proof-of-concept has been identified at time of analysis, but the straightforward exploitation path and ICS context elevate real-world risk.
Earlier versions of this analysis (1)
Missing authorization in Tycon Systems TPDIN-Monitor-WEB3 versions 2.2.9 and prior allows low-privileged authenticated users to access restricted endpoints on this industrial power monitoring web interface, enabling extraction of system credentials, device configurations, or flash memory contents. Reported by ICS-CERT via advisory ICSA-26-246-08, the flaw affects all deployed units on firmware 2.2.9 and earlier, with a patched firmware release (v2.4.2) now available from the vendor's firmware server. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, though successful credential extraction in OT environments could enable lateral movement to other networked industrial systems sharing those credentials.
RemediationAI
Upgrade the TPDIN-Monitor-WEB3 firmware to version 2.4.2, which is available as a firmware package at https://firm.tyconsystems.com/tpdin-monitor-web3-v2/TPDIN-MONITOR-WEB3-V2_v2.4.2.tfw or in hex format at https://firm.tyconsystems.com/tpdin-monitor-web3-v2/TPDIN-MONITOR-WEB3-V2_v2.4.2T.hex; consult the full CISA advisory at https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/ics-advisories/icsa-26-246-08 for installation procedures and any additional vendor guidance. As a compensating control prior to patching, restrict network access to the device's web management interface via firewall ACLs or network segmentation so that only authorized management hosts can reach it; placing the device on an isolated OT network segment or behind a VPN materially reduces exposure to attackers holding low-privilege credentials. If the device was previously accessible from untrusted network segments, rotate all stored credentials immediately, as they should be considered potentially compromised.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The TPDIN-Monitor-WEB3 is a web-based management interface for Tycon Systems DC power monitoring hardware, classified as an OT/ICS product and tracked in the advisory through ICS-CERT. CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) describes the root cause: the application correctly authenticates users but fails to enforce authorization gates on certain sensitive endpoints, allowing lower-privileged sessions to reach functionality reserved for administrators. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:tycon_systems:tpdin-monitor-web3:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, covering the entire product line through version 2.2.9. The CVSS 4.0 base vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N confirms the flaw is network-reachable, requires only low-privilege credentials, and yields high-severity confidentiality and integrity impact. Exposed data - credentials, configuration, and flash contents - represents the full device trust boundary.

Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
Tycon Systems TPDIN-Monitor-WEB3 versions 2.2.9 and prior are vulnerable to a Missing Authorization vulnerability. This could allow an attacker to extract system credentials, configurations, or flash contents.
Executive ViewAI
Tycon Systems TPDIN-Monitor-WEB3 power monitoring appliances contain an authorization bypass allowing low-privilege authenticated users to steal administrative credentials and system configurations, creating a backdoor for attackers already inside your network to take over critical infrastructure controls. For data centers and OT environments, credential theft from the monitoring appliance enables compromise of downstream systems and direct manipulation of power management during critical operations. With no available patches, network isolation and strict access controls are your only defenses against insider exploitation or lateral-movement attacks.
Until a vendor patch is released, isolate TPDIN-Monitor-WEB3 systems to restricted network segments with access limited to authorized administrators via bastion host or VPN; disable unnecessary low-privilege user accounts; implement firewall rules to block access from untrusted network ranges; enforce multi-factor authentication for all access; enable comprehensive audit logging of all connection attempts and configuration changes; and consider air-gapping affected appliances from general network connectivity where operationally feasible.
