Adjacent authentication bypass via predictable Wi-Fi password
Published Dec 10, 2025 · Updated May 28, 2026
Authentication bypass in EZCast Pro II before 1.17478.177 allows physically proximate attackers to access the dongle over Wi-Fi. The access-point firmware derives its default Wi-Fi password from observable device identifiers instead of an unpredictable secret. Exploitation requires Wi-Fi range and the unchanged default password; successful authentication grants network access to the dongle.
