Arduino up to Rev2 LED injection

CVSS Meta Temp Score
CVSS is a standardized scoring system to determine possibilities of attacks. The Temp Score considers temporal factors like disclosure, exploit and countermeasures. The unique Meta Score calculates the average score of different sources to provide a normalized scoring system.
Current Exploit Price (≈)
Our analysts are monitoring exploit markets and are in contact with vulnerability brokers. The range indicates the observed or calculated exploit price to be seen on exploit markets. A good indicator to understand the monetary effort required for and the popularity of an attack.
CTI Interest Score
Our Cyber Threat Intelligence team is monitoring different web sites, mailing lists, exploit markets and social media networks. The CTI Interest Score identifies the interest of attackers and the security community for this specific vulnerability in real-time. A high score indicates an elevated risk to be targeted for this vulnerability.

This vulnerability has a historic impact due to its background and reception.

Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in Arduino up to Rev2. Affected is an unknown functionality of the component LED Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a injection vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-74. The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality. CVE summarizes:

Embedded systems based on Arduino before Rev3 allow remote attackers to send data to LEDs (directly connected to GPIO pins) via a laser, because of LED photosensitivity.

The weakness was shared 07/19/2019. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2019-13991 since 07/19/2019. The attack needs to be approached locally. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. There are neither technical details nor an exploit publicly available. The current price for an exploit might be approx. USD $0-$5k (estimation calculated on 11/05/2023). The MITRE ATT&CK project declares the attack technique as T1055. This vulnerability has a historic impact due to its background and reception.

There is no information about possible countermeasures known. It may be suggested to replace the affected object with an alternative product.
