# ABB Cylon FLXeon 9.3.4 (serialConfig.js) JSON Object Flooding DoS
# 
# 
# Vendor: ABB Ltd.
# Product web page: https://www.global.abb                   
# Affected version: FLXeon Series (FBXi Series, FBTi Series, FBVi Series)
#                   CBX Series (FLX Series)
#                   CBT Series
#                   CBV Series
#                   Firmware: <=9.3.4
# 
# Summary: BACnetยฎ Smart Building Controllers. ABB's BACnet portfolio features a
# series of BACnetยฎ IP and BACnet MS/TP field controllers for ASPECTยฎ and INTEGRAโ„ข
# building management solutions. ABB BACnet controllers are designed for intelligent
# control of HVAC equipment such as central plant, boilers, chillers, cooling towers,
# heat pump systems, air handling units (constant volume, variable air volume, and
# multi-zone), rooftop units, electrical systems such as lighting control, variable
# frequency drives and metering.
# 
# The FLXeon Controller Series uses BACnet/IP standards to deliver unprecedented
# connectivity and open integration for your building automation systems. It's scalable,
# and modular, allowing you to control a diverse range of HVAC functions.
#
# Desc: The ABB Cylon FLXeon BACnet controller is vulnerable to an authenticated JSON
# flooding attack, leading to uncontrolled resource consumption and a denial-of-service
# (DoS) condition. The /api/serialConfig endpoint allows an authenticated attacker to
# abuse an unrestricted loop to create a large number of JSON objects by sending specially
# crafted requests through the ports JSON array. This results in excessive memory and CPU
# usage, causing resource exhaustion and potential service failure.

# 70:     var client = dgram.createSocket("udp4");
# 71:     Platform.readConfig(function (err, config) {
# 72:         if (err) {
# 73:             return res.status(500).send('Failed to read conf.json file');
# 74:         }
# 75:         else {
# 76:             for (let idx = 0; idx < newPorts.length; idx++) {
# 77:                 if (newPorts[idx].protocol == 'mstp') {
# 78:                     newPlat['serial'][idx + 1] = { proto: newPorts[idx].protocol, mstp: { baud: newPorts[idx].baud } };
# 79:                 }
# 80:                 else {
# 81:                     newPlat['serial'][idx + 1] = { proto: newPorts[idx].protocol };
