Impact

This vulnerability presents moderate real-world risk despite a CVSS score of 6.9. The exploitation signals are aligned: CVSS indicates network-accessible, unauthenticated attack surface (PR:N, AV:N) with low complexity; the E:P flag (Exploit Proof-of-Concept Mature) confirms publicly available exploit code; and patch availability from the vendor (v0.3.75) provides a clear remediation path. However, the CVSS Impact metrics show limited scope-only confidentiality (VC:L), integrity (VI:L), and availability (VA:L) at low severity within the vulnerable component itself, with no impact on system-wide confidentiality, integrity, or availability (SC:N, SI:N, SA:N). This suggests the bypass grants access to administrative functions but does not immediately enable critical data exfiltration, modification, or system-wide denial of service without further exploitation. The risk is highest for internet-exposed 9router instances running versions 0.3.47 or earlier; patched deployments are protected. Organizations should prioritize patching vulnerable instances promptly, but this is not a critical zero-day requiring emergency response-it is a disclosed vulnerability with tooling available for exploitation.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An unauthenticated attacker on the internet discovers a decolua 9router instance with version 0.3.47 or earlier running on a network-accessible IP address. The attacker uses publicly available exploit code from https://github.com/deepcat1337/Free_Api_Exploit/tree/main to send a crafted HTTP request to the /api endpoint, bypassing authorization checks and gaining access to administrative functions such as configuration retrieval, user enumeration, or system parameter modification. No credentials, user interaction, or complex attack prerequisites are required.

AnalysisAIv1 – Apr 09, 2026

Remote authorization bypass in decolua 9router up to version 0.3.47 allows unauthenticated network attackers to access the Administrative API Endpoint (/api) without proper credentials, potentially exposing sensitive functionality. The vulnerability has publicly available exploit code and vendor-released patch version 0.3.75 is available, reducing real-world risk for patched deployments but creating urgency for unpatched instances given active public disclosures.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade decolua 9router to version 0.3.75 or later, available at https://github.com/decolua/9router/releases/tag/v0.3.75. For organizations unable to patch immediately, restrict network access to the /api endpoint using firewall rules or reverse proxy authentication, limiting exposure to trusted administrative networks only. Verify the patch installation by confirming the application version and testing administrative API access with invalid credentials to confirm authorization checks are enforced. Review the advisory and fix details at https://github.com/decolua/9router/issues/431 and related commentary in the referenced GitHub commit.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The vulnerability resides in the Administrative API Endpoint (/api) of decolua 9router, a routing or network management component. The root cause is classified as CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key), indicating that the authentication or authorization mechanism fails to properly validate user privileges before granting access to administrative functions. The CVSS 4.0 vector shows this is a network-accessible endpoint (AV:N) with low attack complexity (AC:L) requiring no authentication (PR:N) or user interaction (UI:N), meaning any remote attacker can trigger the bypass. The affected product range spans all versions up to and including 0.3.47 per the CPE specification cpe:2.3:a:decolua:9router:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*.
