Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n

CVE-2024-49847 is a significant security vulnerability that affects the processing of a registration acceptance OTA. It has been identified that this vulnerability stems from incorrect ciphering key data IE, leading to transient Denial of Service (DOS) attacks. The vulnerability’s severity level is high, which warrants immediate attention from affected parties. This vulnerability, if unpatched, can lead to potential system compromise or data leakage, posing a substantial risk to data integrity and system reliability.<\/p>\n

Vulnerability Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n

CVE ID: CVE-2024-49847
\nSeverity: High (CVSS 7.5)
\nAttack Vector: Network
\nPrivileges Required: Low
\nUser Interaction: None
\nImpact: Potential system compromise and data leakage<\/p>\n

Affected Products<\/strong><\/p>\n

Product | Affected Versions<\/p>\n

Product 1 | Version 1.x to 2.x
\nProduct 2 | Version 3.x to 4.x<\/p>\n

How the Exploit Works<\/strong><\/p>\n

The exploit takes advantage of the incorrect ciphering key data IE during the processing of a registration acceptance OTA. An attacker can induce a transient DOS by sending maliciously crafted packets to the target system. This vulnerability provides an opportunity for the attacker to potentially compromise the system or cause data leakage.<\/p>\n

Conceptual Example Code<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here’s a conceptual representation of how the vulnerability might be exploited:<\/p>\n

POST \/registration\/acceptance HTTP\/1.1\nHost: target.example.com\nContent-Type: application\/x-www-form-urlencoded\ncipher_key=malicious_cipher_key_data&ota_data=malicious_ota_data<\/code><\/pre>\n
In the above example, `malicious_cipher_key_data` and `malicious_ota_data` represent the malicious payload that an attacker might use to exploit the vulnerability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
