Carlo Gavazzi Energy Meters - Login Brute Force, Extract Info and Dump Plant Database

Created
05/30/2018

Description

This module scans for Carlo Gavazzi Energy Meters login portals, performs a login brute force attack, enumerates device firmware version, and attempt to extract the SMTP configuration. A valid, admin privileged user is required to extract the SMTP password. In some older firmware versions, the SMTP config can be retrieved without any authentication. The module also exploits an access control vulnerability which allows an unauthenticated user to remotely dump the database file EWplant.db. This db file contains information such as power/energy utilization data, tariffs, and revenue statistics. Vulnerable firmware versions include - VMU-C EM prior to firmware Version A11_U05 and VMU-C PV prior to firmware Version A17.

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
