In Universal Robots Robot Controllers Version CB 3.1, SW Version 3.4.5-100, ports 30001/TCP to 30003/TCP listen for arbitrary URScript code and execute the code. This enables a remote attacker who has access to the ports to remotely execute code that may allow root access to be obtained.

Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →Monitor for unauthenticated inbound TCP connections to ports 30001–30003 on Universal Robots CB 3.1 controllers; any such connection can deliver and execute arbitrary URScript code with potential root-level impact. ↗
- →Alert on any network traffic reaching ports 30001–30003/TCP from hosts outside the robot's trusted subnet; the advisory explicitly states these ports must be restricted at the firewall. ↗
- →Scope detection to Universal Robots CB 3.1 controllers running SW Version 3.4.5-100, the confirmed affected version. ↗
- ·The vulnerability is classified as Missing Authentication for Critical Function (CWE-306); no credentials are required to send URScript commands to the exposed ports, meaning network-layer access alone is sufficient for exploitation. ↗
- ·CVSS v3 base score is 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), reflecting fully unauthenticated, network-exploitable remote code execution with no user interaction required. ↗
