CVE-2023-51059Public exploit

Administrative takeover via global logged-in state

Published Jan 16, 2024 · Updated Nov 4, 2025

Authentication bypass in MOKOSmart MKGW1 BLE Gateway 1.1.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to read and modify device configuration. The administrative web interface sets one global server-side logged-in state for 3,600 seconds instead of binding a session identifier to each client. A legitimate administrator must first sign in; any device on the same management network can then access configuration endpoints without credentials, disclose network secrets, change settings, and trigger a reboot.
