CVE-2022-45482Network attack vector

Unauthenticated command execution via brute-forced PIN

Published Dec 2, 2022 · Updated Apr 24, 2025

Weak PIN authentication in thisAAY Lazy Mouse 2.0.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands. The server accepts a weak PIN and applies no rate limit to repeated guesses, allowing rapid brute-force recovery of the credential. Network access to the receiver is sufficient; a recovered PIN grants remote-control command capabilities without prior authentication.
