Test-asset access via embedded Cognito credentials
Published Jun 4, 2026 · Updated Jun 4, 2026
Hard-coded credentials in Acer Connect M6E 5G Mobile WiFi firmware through M6E_AI_1.00.000019 allow remote attackers to access test assets. Production debug modules embed fixed credentials for internal AWS Cognito test sandboxes instead of issuing device-scoped credentials. No privileges or user interaction are required; impact is limited to unauthorized use of reachable test assets, not service interruption.
