CVE-2022-24119Network attack vector

Unauthenticated configuration-shell access via hidden functionality

Published Dec 26, 2022 · Updated Apr 11, 2025

Hidden functionality in GE Renewable Energy iNET and iNET II before 8.3.0 allows remote attackers to access the device configuration shell. An undocumented feature exposes that shell without authentication to both local and network connections. No credentials or user interaction are required, and successful access permits radio configuration control, unauthorized network admission, or interruption of valid users.
