Administrative compromise via Internet-exposed management interface
Published Dec 7, 2023 · Updated Nov 4, 2025
Improper resource exposure in SENEC Storage Box V1, V2, and V3 before Nov. 2023 allows remote attackers to gain administrative access. The Local GUI is exposed through Internet-facing port forwarding and accepts publicly known administrator credentials. Internet reachability and those credentials are sufficient to invoke the built-in API and shut down or overload appliances.
