CVE-2023-5499Network attack vector

Unauthenticated weekly log disclosure via log2 exposure

Published Oct 10, 2023 · Updated Aug 2, 2024

Information exposure in ReachFar RF-V28 firmware allows remote attackers to retrieve a week of device logs from the log2 directory. INCIBE identifies log2 as the exposed locus but does not disclose the request path or access-control failure that makes its contents retrievable. No authentication or user interaction is required, and the disclosed logs contain remembered Wi-Fi networks, messages, SOS locations, and device settings.
