RVD#1495: Universal Robots URCaps execute with unbounded privileges

Published Aug 21, 2020 · Updated Sep 16, 2024 · Assigned by Alias

Description

Universal Robots controller execute URCaps (zip files containing Java-powered applications) without any permission restrictions and a wide API that presents many primitives that can compromise the overall robot operations as demonstrated in our video. In our PoC we demonstrate how a malicious actor could 'cook' a custom URCap that when deployed by the user (intendedly or unintendedly) compromises the system
