All ADB broadband gateways / routers based on the Epicentro platform are affected by an authorization bypass vulnerability where attackers are able to access and manipulate settings within the web interface that are forbidden to end users (e.g., by the ISP). An attacker would be able to enable the TELNET server or other settings as well.
CVE-2018-13109
Score elevated to 7.7 because EPSS predicts 36% probability of exploitation within the next 30 days (top 1.7% of all CVEs). NVD baseline CVSS 7.5 retained for reference. Confidence: see factors.
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
