Exploitation Conditions

Requires network access to Yealink's RPS (Redirection and Provisioning Service) cloud endpoint and the ability to defeat its pre-fix authentication mechanism (CWE-290 spoofing/bypass) to read provisioning data such as AutoP URL addresses. Exploitation is limited by high attack complexity (AC:H) - success depends on specific, attacker-uncontrolled conditions rather than a simple request - and is now further limited because Yealink deployed an enhanced authentication mechanism to all cloud instances, closing the exposure on the vendor-hosted service as of the 2025-06-27 fix; no customer-side configuration or user interaction is required to exploit, but no customer action was available to mitigate either since the fix is server-side.

Impact

This is a genuine but moderate-priority issue whose real-world risk is now largely historical. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/C:H/I:H/A:N, 7.4 HIGH) describes a network-reachable, unauthenticated flaw with high confidentiality and integrity impact, but with high attack complexity - meaning non-trivial, attacker-uncontrolled conditions must be met to spoof/bypass the RPS authentication (consistent with CWE-290, Authentication Bypass by Spoofing). The EPSS score of 0.30% (22nd percentile) indicates low predicted exploitation likelihood, and there is no CISA KEV listing and no public proof-of-concept, so the signals are internally consistent: a legitimately high-severity flaw that has not translated into observed or likely mass exploitation. Critically, Yealink states the vulnerability was remediated server-side across ALL cloud instances of RPS via a security update (not a customer-applied patch), so the exposure window effectively closed on/after 2025-06-27 for the vendor-hosted service; residual risk applies only if data (e.g., AutoP URLs) was exfiltrated before the fix. The tags and CWE agree with the description. No conflicting signals were identified; the main uncertainty is the exact nature of the AC:H conditions, which neither NVD nor the vendor bulletin detail in the available data.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A remote, unauthenticated attacker interacts with Yealink's RPS (Redirection and Provisioning Service) cloud endpoint and, by defeating the weak authentication mechanism, retrieves provisioning information including AutoP (auto-provisioning) URL addresses. Those URLs can expose device configuration locations, potentially enabling further reconnaissance or tampering of provisioned Yealink phones. No public exploit code is identified, and the high attack complexity suggests exploitation is non-trivial rather than trivially repeatable.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 19, 2026

An authentication bypass (CWE-290) in Yealink's Redirection and Provisioning Service allowed unauthenticated remote attackers to read provisioning information, including AutoP URL addresses, before the 2025-06-27 fix. The flaw is rated CVSS 7.4 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N, high confidentiality and integrity impact), reflecting that exploitation required specific attacker-uncontrolled conditions rather than a simple request. Yealink remediated the issue server-side by deploying an enhanced authentication mechanism to all cloud instances, so no customer-side patch or configuration change exists; the service-side fix closes the exposure for RPS users.

RemediationAI

No customer-side patch is required or available: Yealink fixed this server-side by deploying an enhanced authentication mechanism across all RPS cloud instances as of 2025-06-27, and customers using the vendor-hosted service are already protected. Verify the fix status with Yealink's advisory (https://www.yealink.com/en/trust-center/security-bulletins/yealink-unauthorized-access-to-rps-vulnerability) and the verification report (https://www.yealink.com/website-service/download/Yealink_RPS_Security_Remediation_Verification_Report.pdf), and track any residual exposure if you operate a self-hosted or redirected provisioning path. As compensating hygiene where provisioning integrity matters, rotate or restrict AutoP URL credentials and ensure provisioning traffic is protected by TLS with certificate validation so spoofed redirection targets cannot be silently accepted; the trade-off is added management overhead and potential re-provisioning of handsets. Because no public exploit code was identified and EPSS is low, prioritize this below actively exploited issues, but confirm with Yealink that your cloud tenant received the post-2025-06-27 update.

Affected ProductsAI

Yealink RPS (Redirection and Provisioning Service) cloud instances prior to the 2025-06-27 fix, as documented in Yealink's trust-center security bulletin (https://www.yealink.com/en/trust-center/security-bulletins/yealink-unauthorized-access-to-rps-vulnerability) and the accompanying remediation verification report (https://www.yealink.com/website-service/download/Yealink_RPS_Security_Remediation_Verification_Report.pdf). The issue affects the vendor-hosted provisioning service rather than a discrete customer-installed software version, so no CPE-tagged local product range applies. No public exploit code was identified at time of analysis and there is no CISA KEV entry; EPSS is low at 0.30% (22nd percentile).

Technical ContextAI · show details

Yealink RPS is the vendor-hosted cloud service that tells Yealink IP phones where to fetch their configuration (AutoP URL addresses). The vulnerability is an authentication bypass rooted in CWE-290 (Authentication Bypass by Spoofing): the pre-fix service authentication mechanism could be defeated so that an unauthenticated network attacker could obtain provisioning data such as AutoP URLs. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N) indicates the attack is network-reachable without credentials or user interaction, but that success depends on specific, attacker-uncontrolled conditions (high complexity), and that the primary impact is confidentiality and integrity of provisioning data rather than availability. Because the mechanism is entirely server-side and centralized, the risk surface is the Yealink cloud endpoint itself, not individual customer devices or configurations.

DescriptionCVE.org

Yealink RPS before 2025-06-27 allows unauthorized access to information, including AutoP URL addresses. This was fixed by deploying an enhanced authentication mechanism through a security update to all cloud instances.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Yealink's Redirection and Provisioning Service contained an authentication bypass that could expose provisioning data, including AutoP URLs, to unauthenticated remote parties under specific conditions, with no public exploit identified at time of analysis. The vendor reports a server-side authentication enhancement deployed to all cloud instances; no vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Organizations using Yealink RPS should confirm their exposure window and validate device provisioning integrity, because leaked AutoP URLs could enable unauthorized redirection or configuration changes affecting VoIP endpoints.

Business Impact: Medium
Compensating Controls

Verify with Yealink that the server-side authentication enhancement is applied to all RPS cloud instances; inventory Yealink devices and AutoP URLs; rotate any potentially exposed provisioning secrets; restrict provisioning endpoint access to trusted networks; monitor provisioning logs for anomalous requests; and enforce device firmware and configuration-integrity checks.
