An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-15555 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15555/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15555/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-15555","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15555/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-15555","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-234w-xgj2-p772"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"configuration_change","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"home router","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers with physical access can gain root privileges on Telus Actiontec routers by using hardcoded credentials via UART headers.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"hardcoded_credentials"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"web6000q_firmware","vendor":"actiontec"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-662","name":"Improper Synchronization"}],"description":"On Telus Actiontec WEB6000Q v1.1.02.22 devices, an attacker can login with root level access with the user \"root\" and password \"admin\" by using the enabled onboard UART headers.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-15555","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"hardcoded_credentials","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-15556"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-15553"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-06-28","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-15556","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-06-27"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-15557","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-06-27"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers with physical access can gain root privileges on Telus Actiontec routers by using hardcoded credentials via UART headers.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15555/"}
