研究人员从网络安全公司检查发现漏洞在飞利浦色相智能灯泡使用的通信协议——一个选框智能家居设备依赖于无线个域网协议。
的研究,完成了检查信息安全研究所的帮助下,在特拉维夫大学(领域),以色列是向飞利浦和披露意味着(飞利浦色相品牌的所有者)在2019年11月。
在这项研究中,研究人员关注飞利浦色调智能灯泡和桥,发现漏洞(cve - 2020 - 6007),使他们渗透到网络使用远程无线个域网中利用低功耗无线协议,用于控制各种物联网设备。
研究人员使用的色调白炽灯的灯泡作为一个平台来接管控制桥和最终,攻击目标的计算机网络。
最近硬件一代又一代的色调灯泡没有利用漏洞,研究说。
“很多人都知道物联网设备可以构成安全风险,但这项研究表明,即使是最平凡的,看似“愚蠢的”设备,如灯泡可能被黑客用来接管网络,或植物恶意软件,“说Yaniv balma,网络研究,检查研究。
“这是至关重要的组织和个人保护自己免受这些可能的攻击通过更新设备的最新补丁和其他机器在他们的网络分开,限制的可能传播恶意软件。在当今复杂的第五代攻击景观,我们不能忽视安全的任何连接到我们的网络,”balma说道。
重置灯泡的唯一方法是删除它的应用程序,然后指示控制桥再发现灯泡。
桥发现灯泡妥协,和用户添加回他们的网络。
hacker-controlled球与更新固件然后使用无线个域网协议漏洞引发出现基于堆的缓冲区溢出控制桥上,通过发送大量数据。
这些数据还允许黑客在桥上安装恶意软件——这是依次连接到目标企业或家庭网络。
连接到黑客的恶意软件和使用一个已知的利用(如EternalBlue),他们可以从桥上渗透目标IP网络传播ransomware或间谍软件。
“我们建议用户,以确保他们的产品收到了自动更新的固件版本、“检查站说。

<\/figure> New Delhi: Security researchers<\/a> on Wednesday warned that cyber criminals could exploit an Internet of Things (IoT) network - smart light bulbs and their control bridge -- to launch attacks on conventional computer networks<\/a> in homes, businesses or even smart cities.The researchers from cybersecurity firm Check Point discovered vulnerabilities<\/a> in the communication protocol used by Philips Hue smart lightbulbs -- a marquee smart home device that relies on the Zigbee protocol.
The research, which was done with the help of the Check Point Institute for Information Security (CPIIS) in Tel Aviv University, Israel<\/a> was disclosed to Philips and Signify (owner of the Philips Hue brand) in November 2019.
<\/div><\/div>Signify confirmed the existence of the vulnerability in their product, and issued a patched firmware version (Firmware 1935144040) which is now via an automatic update.
For the study, the researchers focused on the Philips Hue smart bulbs and bridge, and found vulnerabilities (CVE-2020-6007) that enabled them to infiltrate networks using a remote exploit in the ZigBee low-power wireless protocol that is used to control a wide range of IoT devices<\/a>.
The researchers used the Hue lightbulb as a platform to take over the bulbs' control bridge and ultimately, attacking the target's computer network.
The more recent hardware generations of Hue lightbulbs do not have the exploited vulnerability, the study said.
\"Many of us are aware that IoT devices can pose a security risk, but this research shows how even the most mundane, seemingly 'dumb' devices such as lightbulbs can be exploited by hackers and used to take over networks, or plant malware,\" said Yaniv Balmas, Head of Cyber Research, Check Point Research.
\"It's critical that organisations and individuals protect themselves against these possible attacks by updating their devices with the latest patches and separating them from other machines on their networks, to limit the possible spread of malware. In today's complex fifth-generation attack landscape, we cannot afford to overlook the security of anything that is connected to our networks,\" Balmas said.

In today's complex fifth-generation attack landscape, we cannot afford to overlook the security of anything that is connected to our networks,\" Balmas said.
<\/div><\/div>In an attack scenario that the researchers unravelled, the hacker controls the bulb's colour or brightness to trick users into thinking the bulb has a glitch. The bulb appears as 'unreachable' in the user's control app, so they will try to 'reset' it.
The only way to reset the bulb is to delete it from the app, and then instruct the control bridge to re-discover the bulb.
The bridge discovers the compromised bulb, and the user adds it back onto their network.
The hacker-controlled bulb with updated firmware then uses the ZigBee protocol vulnerabilities to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow on the control bridge, by sending a large amount of data to it.
This data also enables the hacker to install malware on the bridge - which is in turn connected to the target business or home network.
The malware connects back to the hacker and using a known exploit (such as EternalBlue), they can infiltrate the target IP network from the bridge to spread ransomware or spyware.
\"We recommend users to make sure that their product received the automatic update of this firmware version,\" Check Point said.<\/div><\/div>
