UPnP has hidden security risks affecting global network equipment

Network security vendor Rapid7 said on the 29th that the widely used UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) technology on the market has many security vulnerabilities, and devices with UPnP are extremely vulnerable to hackers. In fact, in order to quickly install, facilitate connection, and save debugging, many of the devices we use every day can be plug and play. For example, our PCs, routers, printers, servers, surveillance cameras, storage devices, etc.

UPnP Plug-and-Play Vulnerability Outbreak Spreads Global Network Equipment

Rapid7 pointed out that researchers have identified three independent vulnerabilities in the UPnP technical standard, which will cause 40-50 million devices worldwide to be in sub-health state. Hackers can use these security holes to obtain files, passwords, and permissions, including remote control of these devices.

Rapid7 CTO Moore said that although hackers have not yet used UPnP vulnerabilities to implement attacks on a large scale, this is obviously a potential security risk. In order to urge equipment manufacturers to fix these vulnerabilities, they decided to announce these vulnerabilities. In addition, Mohr also recommends that users check their own devices and turn off UPnP as needed, because many devices are shipped with plug and play enabled by default.

Scope of supply

Rating: Up to 200MVA

Voltage:Valve side voltage up to 1000VDC, Grid side voltage up to 220KV

Double star and double bridge

 

Applications:

The rectifier transformers are mainly used in the electrolysis processes for production of different kind of metals, such as aluminum electrolyzing, magnesium electrolyzing, copper electrolyzing, zinc electrolyzing and other more applications. The largest installed rectifier transformers are always for aluminum electrolysis with some transformer/rectifier combined units in parallel operation to get the required DC current.

 

Design:

The rectification method is normally known as double star or double bridge. Double star systems use an interphase transformer (IPT) and are usually applied as 6 or 12pulse units where high currents are required with very low nominal voltages. Double bridge system is applied as 6, 12, 24, 48 or 60pulse systems, as required to suit the harmonic mitigation and process stability requirements.

 

Duty

Electrolysis is normally a continuous process, but with a constant high loading and current harmonics.
