Summary

An update is available that resolves a privately reported vulnerability in the product versions listed as affected in this advisory.

FLXEON devices are not intended to be internet-facing. A product advisory issued in June 2023 informed customers of this parameter.

An attacker can successfully exploit these vulnerabilities and could take remote control of the product and potentially insert and run arbitrary code.
ABB requires, as noted in previous security advisories and user documentation, that FLXEON should not be exposed to the internet or any other insecure network.
Note: In order to exploit an FLXEON, an attacker would need a misconfigured system.

ABB strongly advises customers and system integrators to follow the instructions documented in: FBXi, CBXi and ASPECT® SOLUTIONS, which can be downloaded from the ABB library (See in the reference section).
