Impact
Improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command ('SQL injection') in the KACO Meteor server on Siemens BluePlanet systems allows an authorized attacker with local network access to elevate privileges. By exploiting this flaw, the attacker could gain full control over the affected device, impacting confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vulnerability is a classic SQL injection, classified as CWE‑89.
Affected Systems
The vulnerability affects every revision of the Siemens BluePlanet product family, including BluePlanet 100 NX3 M8, BluePlanet 100 TL3 GEN2, BluePlanet 105 TL3 and its GEN2 variants, BluePlanet 110 TL3, BluePlanet 125 NX3 M10, BluePlanet 125 TL3 and its GEN2 variants, BluePlanet 137 TL3, BluePlanet 150 TL3 and its GEN2 variants, BluePlanet 155 TL3 and its GEN2 variants, BluePlanet 165 TL3 and its GEN2 variants, BluePlanet 25.0 NX3-33.0 NX3, BluePlanet 3.0 NX3-20.0 NX3, BluePlanet 3.0-5.0 NX1, BluePlanet 360 NX3 M6, BluePlanet 50.0 NX3-60.0 NX3, BluePlanet 87.0 TL3 and its GEN2 variant, BluePlanet 92.0 TL3 and its GEN2 variant, BluePlanet gridsave 110 TL3-S, BluePlanet gridsave 137 TL3-S, BluePlanet gridsave 92.0 TL3-S, BluePlanet hybrid 10.0 TL3, and BluePlanet hybrid 6.0 NH3-12.0 NH3. All listed models are affected regardless of firmware or software version.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 5.9 indicates a moderate severity, reflecting the need for an authenticated attacker with local network presence. Because EPSS is available and is very low (<1%, score approximately 0.00021), the likelihood of exploitation is very low, but the vulnerability is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog, which suggests no widespread public exploitation is documented. Nevertheless, the database-level elevation could lead to full control of the asset, compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability within the local network. Based on the description, it is inferred that an attacker must have authorized local network access to exploit the flaw. Attackers would need to be authenticated or otherwise have legitimate credentials to interact with the KACO Meteor server; there is no mention of remote access.
