CVE-2021-27289
A replay attack vulnerability was discovered in a Zigbee smart home kit manufactured by Ksix (Zigbee Gateway Module = v1.0.3, Door Sensor = v1.0.7, Motion Sensor = v1.0.12), where the Zigbee anti-replay mechanism - based on the frame counter field - is improperly implemented. As a result, an attacker within wireless range can resend captured packets with a higher sequence number, which the devices incorrectly accept as legitimate messages. This allows spoofed commands to be injected without authentication, triggering false alerts and misleading the user through notifications in the mobile application used to monitor the network.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H

"value": "Se descubrió una vulnerabilidad de ataque de repetición en Zigbee smart home kit manufactured by Ksix (Zigbee Gateway Module = v1.0.3, Door Sensor = v1.0.7, Motion Sensor = v1.0.12), donde el mecanismo antirreproducción de Zigbee, basado en el campo contador de tramas, está implementado incorrectamente. Como resultado, un atacante dentro del alcance inalámbrico puede reenviar paquetes capturados con un número de secuencia mayor, que los dispositivos aceptan incorrectamente como mensajes legítimos. Esto permite inyectar comandos falsificados sin autenticación, lo que genera alertas falsas y engaña al usuario mediante notificaciones en la aplicación móvil utilizada para monitorear la red."
