Unauthenticated XCMD execution via unchecked GHOME requests
Published Oct 25, 2022 · Updated Apr 15, 2025
Authentication bypass in Abode Systems iota All-In-One Security Kit 6.9X and 6.9Z allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary XCMDs. The UDP/55050 GHOME service dispatches unauthenticated XML-carried XCMDs to the trusted XMPP command handler without authorization checks. Network access to UDP/55050 is sufficient to disarm the system, read or write sensitive settings, reboot the hub, or change local web credentials.
