AI Analysis

Impact

An attacker who can supply the aes_pass argument in the backup_common.sh script can force the router to use a hard‑coded AES key instead of a user‑supplied key. This loss of key confidentiality exposes the backup archives to decryption by anyone who can read the backups, thereby violating confidentiality. The flaw is documented as CWE‑320 and CWE‑321, highlighting the improper handling of sensitive information and the use of hard‑coded secrets.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability is limited to Netcore NAP930 devices running firmware version 0.1.241010.141410. No other versions or products are listed as affected.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.1 indicates a medium severity. The EPSS score is not available, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Because the flaw can be triggered remotely, an attacker does not need local access; the exploit was publicly disclosed and could be used against any exposed device running the affected firmware.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the device to a firmware revision that eliminates the hard‑coded key or replaces it with a properly managed key.
  • If an upgrade is unavailable, reconfigure the backup utility to use a strong, randomly generated encryption key rather than the default value.
  • Disallow or tightly restrict remote initiation of backups if that feature is present, and closely monitor backup activity for unauthorized requests.
  • Contact Netcore to obtain a vendor‑issued fix; if no response is received, consider implementing a custom patch to enforce proper key usage.
