CVE-2024-32752Network attack vector

Door-control changes via unauthenticated ICU communications

Published Jun 6, 2024 · Updated Apr 24, 2025

Missing authentication in Johnson Controls iSTAR Pro and ICU all versions allows remote attackers to alter door control and configuration. The controller accepts ICU configuration communications without authenticating the peer, allowing a machine-in-the-middle attacker to interpose and issue changes. Network access to the ICU communication path is required; reported consequences are limited to unauthorized door-control and configuration changes.
