Security of Busch-Jaeger IP Gateway

IoT is everywhere right now and there are a lot of products out there. I have been looking at an IP Gateway lately and found some serious issues. The Busch-Welcome IP-Gateway from Busch-Jaeger is one of the devices that bridges the gap between sensors and actors in your smart home and the network/Internet. It enables the communication to a door control system that implements various smart home functions. The device itself is offering an HTTP service to configure it, which is protected by a username and password. Some folks even actually expose the device and its login to the Internet. I tried to configure one of these lately and stumbled upon some security issues that I would like to discuss in this blog post.

Reversing and Patching .NET Binaries with Embedded References

Lately I’ve been analyzing a .NET binary that was quite interesting. It was a portable binary that shipped without any third-party dependencies. I started looking at the .NET assembly with ILSpy and noticed that there was not that much code that ILSpy found and there were a lot of references to classes/methods that were neither in the classes identified by ILSpy nor were they part of the .NET framework.

Industrial IoT Overview & Case Studies

Stefan and I had the pleasure of joining a one-day closed workshop on Industrial IoT Security. As always, we ended up with plenty of new research ideas and great contacts. We hope of course to post on follow-up research, but in this short post we quickly want to publish our slides which contain our input for the workshop. We mainly presented on IT security challenges for modern IIoT environments and presented some case studies for successful hardening/protection of IIoT environments as well as security in IIoT product development.

You can find our slides here.
