DescriptionCVE.org

A security vulnerability has been detected in EFM ipTIME T24000M up to 14.20.0. This affects the function httpcon_check_session_url of the component Session Validation Handler. Such manipulation leads to improper authentication. The attack can be executed remotely. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

AnalysisAI

Authentication bypass in EFM ipTIME T24000M firmware through version 14.20.0 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to bypass session validation by manipulating the httpcon_check_session_url function in the Session Validation Handler. The flaw falls under CWE-287 (Improper Authentication) and grants unauthorized access to router management functions without valid credentials. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Identify exposed ipTIME management interface
Delivery
Send crafted HTTP request to httpcon_check_session_url
Exploit
Bypass session validation
Execution
Gain unauthenticated admin access
Impact
Modify router configuration or exfiltrate credentials

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation No special non-default configuration is required - the Session Validation Handler is a core component of the router's HTTP management interface, which is enabled by default on ipTIME devices. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.9 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H) accurately reflects a remotely exploitable, low-complexity authentication bypass requiring no privileges or user interaction, with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An unauthenticated remote attacker sends a specially crafted HTTP request to the ipTIME T24000M management interface, manipulating the URL in a way that causes httpcon_check_session_url to incorrectly validate the session as authenticated. With authentication bypassed, the attacker gains full administrative control over the router - enabling DNS hijacking, credential harvesting of connected clients, or network traffic interception. …
Remediation No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis; the vendor did not respond to disclosure. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Conduct immediate inventory of all EFM ipTIME T24000M devices in production, confirm firmware versions (14.20.0 and earlier are affected), and disable or isolate affected routers from direct internet exposure. …
