Unauthenticated settings changes via hidden functionality
Published May 9, 2024 · Updated Aug 22, 2024
Hidden functionality in NEC DT900 and DT900S 5.0.0.0 through 5.3.4.4 and 5.4.0.0 through 5.6.0.20 lets remote attackers change settings. An undocumented settings interface accepts unauthenticated local-network requests and writes device configuration; NEC has not disclosed the interface, request format, or code-level flaw. Exploitation requires local-network reachability and permits configuration changes, while the published assessment reports no availability impact.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=5.0.0.0 <=5.3.4.4
- Affected versionversion=5.0.0.0 – v5.3.4.4, v5.4.0.0 – v5.6.0.20
- Affected versionversion=5.4.0.0 <=5.6.0.20
