| schestowitz[TR2] | Conclusion reached; The control units run GNU/Linux and not embedded windows and have nginx as the webserver and, thus the OS and webserver software used doesn't have significant issues. | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Although, danfoss are totally incompetent and do things like use microsoft software and backdoor their proprietary software with backdoor passwords, which has allowed attackers to trivially login and adjust the temperature, rather than needing to work out how to exploit old software or MiTM TLS. | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Rasperry Pi's run GNU/Linux, but the freezers don't use such SBC's (it would be too easy to cut the proprietary Broadcom trash out and replace it with a decent control unit). | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Looking at the danfoss.com freezer OS download page, it literally says "Please enable JavaScript to run this application." and has the microsoft mark of the beast right below. | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | The download pages for one freezer control unit seem to be; https://sm800a.danfoss.com/sw_shared/ [danfoss.com] and https://sm800a.danfoss.com/Danux_shared/ [danfoss.com] | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Downloading https://sm800a.danfoss.com/sw_shared/SM800A-5.3.2.spk, [danfoss.com] it's a 7zip archive - inside is SM800A_Upgrade_Source.7z - there's a few bash scripts, and 32bit ARM .so files and executables and also so nginx configuration files - but the actual OS is missing (there is a nasty proprietary license too, although it has a carve out for strong free software licenses). | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | The actual OS is in the other archive; `wget https://sm800a.danfoss.com/Danux_shared/Danux4.14.017.194.lpk` [danfoss.com] | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | `7z x Danux4.14.017.194.lpk` | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | `7z x SM800A_Upgrade_Source.7z` | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | `cpio -i danux.swu` | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | #configure file sw-description, which lists u-boot and lua | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | #emmcsetup.lua is a lua script that seems to flash msc-image-base-msc-sm2-imx6x.ext4.gz to the eMMC. | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | `gzip -d msc-image-base-msc-sm2-imx6x.ext4.gz` | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | `mkdir filesystem` | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | `grub-mount msc-image-base-msc-sm2-imx6x.ext4 filesystem` (or you can do `7z x msc-image-base-msc-sm2-imx6x.ext4`, but it ignores many softlinks while extracting) | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Reviewing the filesystem, it is a GNU/Linux distro, that contains GNU bc, bash, gdbm, coreutils, gnutls, ncurses, readline, gcrypt, autotools, glibc, gzip, gettext, cpio, grep, tar, sed, gcc, gdb, find, awk, diffutils, less, iconv, wget, which, binutils, , as well as glib, zsh, busybox, util-linux, shadow, avahi, bash-completions, lua, ccache, lsusb, openssh, openssl, bzip2, jq, cups, nginx, fastcgi, ofono (yes, the modem manager f | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | or Openmoko), xz, valgrind, curl, dnf (but no firewall configuration), python, csslint, libbluetooth, perl, aplay, lsusb, boost, postfix, dnsmasq and many more packages. | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | That's a lot of GPLv2 and GPLv3 software, with no written offer for source code and installation information in sight - they're so incompetent they can't even follow easy to comply with software licenses. | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | A lot of the packages are irrelevant to a freezer control unit - they decided to enable pretty much everything in "OpenEmbedded". | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Under opt/{st_cert.pem,st_privkey.key}, there is a cert and the privatekey for the cert sitting there - what is that for? | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Under /etc/nginx/nginx.conf there is; "ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3; # Dropping SSLv3, ref: POODLE" | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | TLSv1 and 1.1 should *not* be enabled, as MiTMing those protocols is feasible in some conditions. | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | nginx.conf lacks a terminating } - does this update even work? | Nov 04 07:21 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | They haven't updated ca-certificates since 2025-09-30, so it is almost certain that all units are vulnerable to being TLS MiTM'd via emudra cross-signing (there are no emSign root certs, but some other CA has cross-signed the weak root certs). | Nov 04 07:21 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | @bj honestly I’d be speculating. I’ve just seen these few instances this week and the way they were done makes me sick. If there’s an RA we’ll all know soon enough. Remember - Arvind said “no RAs this year” but said nothing about PIPs. This really is a sc-mmy place to work. I’m giving my notice soon so I feel better already. Get out on your own terms, not theirs. | Nov 04 16:08 |
