GHSA-G8QX-JHJM-3F9H

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-08-08 18:32 – Updated: 2025-09-08 18:31

Details

The MOD3 command traffic between the monitoring application and the inverter is transmitted in plaintext without encryption or obfuscation. This vulnerability may allow an attacker with access to a local network to intercept, manipulate, replay, or forge critical data, including read/write operations for voltage, current, and power configuration, operational status, alarms, telemetry, system reset, or inverter control commands, potentially disrupting power generation or reconfiguring inverter settings.

Severity ?

6.9 (Medium)


                  
                    CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:L
