Unauthenticated account takeover via IP-based trust
Published Jan 7, 2024 · Updated Jun 3, 2025
Improper authentication in the Uniway Router 2.0 administrative web interface allows remote attackers to take over accounts. The interface treats an IP address as an authentication factor; public materials do not identify the affected endpoint or validation logic. Exploitation requires high-complexity network conditions but no prior authentication or user interaction, and grants account access through the administrative interface.
