Device hijacking via demo-area ownership failure
Published May 13, 2025 · Updated May 13, 2025
Authorization failure in SMA Sunny Portal Classic before 20.02.2025 allows remote attackers to hijack devices through a demo account. The portal's demo-system area grants a demo account control over non-demo devices that users mistakenly added there, without enforcing the devices' ownership boundary. Only devices erroneously placed in the demo area are exposed; attackers can change their parameters and configuration data, with no reported confidentiality or availability impact.
