CVE-2021-20990: Fibaro Home Center Unauthenticated access to shutdown, reboot and reboot to recovery mode

In Fibaro Home Center 2 and Lite devices with firmware version 4.600 and older an internal management service is accessible on port 8000 and some API endpoints could be accessed without authentication to trigger a shutdown, a reboot or a reboot into recovery mode.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Some Fibaro Home Center 2 and Home Center Lite devices can be remotely shut down or rebooted without login if their internal management service is reachable. This is primarily an availability risk: smart-home or facility automation may be interrupted, but the provided sources do not show data theft or active exploitation. Exposure is likely where Fibaro Home Center 2 or Home Center Lite devices run firmware 4.600 or older and port 8000 is reachable from user, guest, IoT, or internet-adjacent networks. Treat this as a high-priority resilience issue for environments depending on Fibaro automation. Prioritize inventory, network restriction, and firmware review. Urgency increases if devices are reachable beyond a tightly controlled management network. Mitigation focus: Identify all Fibaro Home Center 2 and Home Center Lite devices.; Check Fibaro guidance for fixed firmware or vendor-recommended workarounds.; Update affected firmware when a vendor-approved fix is available..
