Impact
A flaw has been identified in Insta's InstaKNXServiceApp firmware update handler, specifically in the CreateWebClientAndDownloadFileList function of the firmware update component. The vulnerability is caused by insufficient verification of data authenticity during update manipulation. According to the vendor, an authenticity check is performed after the entire firmware update has been transferred, and if this check fails the update is not installed, leaving the previous firmware intact. The vulnerability, however, could potentially allow a remote attacker to influence the update process, though exploitation is described as highly complex and difficult, and doubts remain about whether the flaw truly exists. The weakness is identified as CWE-345, indicating insufficient verification of data authenticity.
Affected Systems
Insta's InstaKNXServiceApp, specifically version 1.2.3.1469, is impacted. No other versions or products are listed.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 6.3 indicates a moderate severity assessment. The EPSS score is < 1%, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, suggesting no widely documented exploitation yet. The attack vector is remote, but the description notes that exploitation is highly complex and difficult, which may reduce the likelihood of an immediate real‑world attack.
