Device reboot via unhandled Modbus data address
Published Nov 19, 2025 · Updated Nov 19, 2025
Out-of-bounds read in Shelly Pro 3EM 1.4.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to reboot the meter via a crafted Modbus request. The Modbus request handler accesses an illegal data address and fails to return the standard protocol error, causing the device to restart. Unauthenticated access from an adjacent network is sufficient, and the resulting denial of service interrupts energy monitoring until the device reboots.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
