NVD has not assigned a CVSS score to this record. It sits in the 99.7th percentile for exploit probability.
⚠️ A lack of restrictions on a common protocol could turn your modem into a hacker's playground! Think of the TR-064 protocol as a restaurant where anyone can walk in uninvited and start ordering off the menu without paying — that's how easily attackers can execute commands on your modem. An attacker could open WAN access to TCP port 80, retrieve the default login password (which is often the same as the Wi-Fi password!), and take over your device. They could then use features like NewNTPServer to manipulate network time settings, leading to further vulnerabilities. That's quite a recipe for disaster!
Think of the TR-064 protocol as a restaurant where anyone can walk in uninvited and start ordering off the menu without paying — that's how easily attackers can execute commands on your modem. The Eir D1000 modem fails to properly restrict the TR-064 protocol, making it susceptible to remote command execution through TCP port 7547, allowing unauthorized access to sensitive functionalities.
An attacker could open WAN access to TCP port 80, retrieve the default login password (which is often the same as the Wi-Fi password!), and take over your device. They could then use features like NewNTPServer to manipulate network time settings, leading to further vulnerabilities. That's quite a recipe for disaster! To protect your network, ensure your modem's firmware is updated to the latest version to address this vulnerability. Additionally, consider disabling the TR-064 protocol if it's not needed. Always change default passwords to something strong and unique! You've got this! Stay vigilant and secure your devices. 🛡️
