Pre-OS control via unauthenticated UART boot interruption
Published Jan 26, 2026 · Updated Jan 26, 2026
Missing authentication in Beetel 777VR1 firmware 01.00.09 and 01.00.09_55 allows physically proximate attackers to access the bootloader console. The Realtek bootloader accepts an ESC keypress during early startup and opens its interactive UART console without authentication or authorization. Physical access to the UART pins and precise boot interruption are required; successful access grants unrestricted pre-OS device control.
