Administrator access via unchecked user role update
Published Dec 24, 2025 · Updated Dec 24, 2025
Incorrect authorization in V-SOL GPON/EPON OLT Platform 2.03 allows remote authenticated users to gain administrative access. The user-management handler at /action/user.html accepts a crafted HTTP POST with user_role_mod set to 1 and applies the requested administrator role without validating the caller's authority. A normal account and access to the web management interface are sufficient; successful exploitation grants the administrative control available on the OLT.
