SunGrow

SunGrow's back end users system iSolarCloud https://isolarcloud.com  uses an MQTT service to transport data from the user's connected devices to the user's web browser.  The MQTT server however did not have sufficient restrictions in place to limit the topics that a user could subscribe to.  While the data that is transmitted through the MQTT server is encrypted and the credentials for the MQTT server are obtained though an API call, the credentials could be used to subscribe to any topic and the encryption key can be used to decrypt all messages received. An attack with an account on iSolarCloud.com could extract MQTT credentials and the decryption key from the browser and then use an external program to subscribe to the topic '#' and thus recieve all messages from all connected devices.

A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, has been found in SunGrow Logger1000 01_A. This issue affects some unknown processing. The manipulation leads to weak password requirements. The attack may be initiated remotely. The complexity of an attack is rather high. The exploitation is known to be difficult. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

SunGrow iSolarCloud before the October 31, 2024 remediation is vulnerable to insecure direct object references (IDOR) via the devService API model.

SunGrow iSolarCloud before the October 31, 2024 remediation is vulnerable to insecure direct object references (IDOR) via the commonService API model.

SunGrow iSolarCloud Android app V2.1.6.20241104 and prior suffers from Missing SSL Certificate Validation. The app explicitly ignores certificate errors and is vulnerable to MiTM attacks. Attackers can impersonate the iSolarCloud server and communicate with the Android app.

SunGrow iSolarCloud before the October 31, 2024 remediation is vulnerable to insecure direct object references (IDOR) via the orgService API model.

SunGrow WiNet-S V200.001.00.P025 and earlier versions is missing integrity checks for firmware upgrades. Sending a specific MQTT message allows an update to an inverter or a WiNet connectivity dongle with a bogus firmware file that is located on attacker-controlled server.

SunGrow iSolarCloud Android application V2.1.6.20241017 and prior contains hardcoded credentials. The application (regardless of the user account) and the cloud uses the same MQTT credentials for exchanging the device telemetry.

SunGrow iSolarCloud Android app V2.1.6.20241017 and prior uses an insecure AES key to encrypt client data (insufficient entropy). This may allow attackers to decrypt intercepted communications between the mobile app and iSolarCloud.

SunGrow iSolarCloud before the October 31, 2024 remediation is vulnerable to insecure direct object references (IDOR) via the userService API model.

SunGrow iSolarCloud before the October 31, 2024 remediation, is vulnerable to insecure direct object references (IDOR) via the powerStationService API model.
