How the Exploit Works

The vulnerability exploits improper restriction of excessive authentication attempts in the QR Menu. An attacker can make multiple failed attempts without being locked out or slowed down. This scenario can be exploited to perform a brute force attack, where an attacker systematically checks all possible passwords until the correct one is found. Once successful, this vulnerability grants the attacker unauthorized access to the compromised system.

Conceptual Example Code

Below is a conceptual example of how this vulnerability might be exploited. This pseudocode represents a brute force attack, systematically attempting all possible password combinations:

import requests
def exploit(target):
for password in generate_all_possible_passwords():
response = requests.post(
f'http://{target}/login',
data={'username': 'admin', 'password': password}
)
if response.status_code == 200:
print(f'Success! The password is {password}')
break

This pseudocode attempts to log in as the ‘admin’ user by trying all possible passwords. The `generate_all_possible_passwords` function isn’t defined here, but in a real attack it might generate passwords using a dictionary of common passwords, or even every possible combination of characters.
Remember, this is a conceptual example and does not represent a real attack. It’s shared to demonstrate the potential risk posed by the CVE-2025-2412 vulnerability.
