Sensitive data disclosure via MQTT wildcard subscriptions
Published Jan 30, 2025 · Updated Jan 30, 2025
Improper wildcard handling in the Cloud MQTT service of affected New Rock devices allows local users to read sensitive communications. CISA reports that the service accepts wildcard topic subscriptions, causing communications from matching topics to be exposed to the subscriber. Exploitation requires local access but no privileges or user interaction; the published impact is limited to disclosure, with no integrity or availability impact.
