Philips Hue Bridge HomeKit Accessory Protocol Static Nonce Authentication Bypass Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to bypass authentication on affected installations of Philips Hue Bridge. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the configuration of the SRP authentication mechanism in the HomeKit Accessory Protocol service, which listens on TCP port 8080 by default. The issue results from the use of a static nonce value. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to bypass authentication on the system. Was ZDI-CAN-28451.

Vulnerabilidad de omisión de autenticación por nonce estático en el Protocolo de Accesorios HomeKit de Philips Hue Bridge. Esta vulnerabilidad permite a atacantes adyacentes a la red omitir la autenticación en instalaciones afectadas de Philips Hue Bridge. La autenticación no es necesaria para explotar esta vulnerabilidad. La falla específica reside en la configuración del mecanismo de autenticación SRP en el servicio del Protocolo de Accesorios HomeKit, que escucha en el puerto TCP 8080 por defecto. El problema se debe al uso de un valor nonce estático. Un atacante puede aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad para omitir la autenticación en el sistema. Fue ZDI-CAN-28451.
