CVE-2025-57175 MEDIUM This Month

Siklu EtherHaul 8010 wireless backhaul devices contain a static root password that enables physical attackers or those with local console access to gain complete administrative control without authentication. The vulnerability affects firmware version 10.6.2-18707 and potentially other versions of the EtherHaul 8010 product line, allowing credential-based authentication bypass with high confidentiality and integrity impact. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been confirmed at this time, though the CVSS:3.1 physical attack vector (AV:P) reflects that an attacker must have direct physical access to the device's console interfaces.

CVE-2025-7741 LOW CISA Monitor

Hardcoded password vulnerability in Yokogawa CENTUM VP allows authentication bypass for the PROG system account across versions R5.01.00-R5.04.20, R6.01.00-R6.12.00, and R7.01.00. An attacker who obtains the hardcoded credential and has direct access to the Human Interface Station (HIS) running CTM authentication mode can log in as PROG; however, real-world risk is constrained because PROG defaults to S1 (OFFUSER) permission level, and exploitation requires pre-existing HIS access. No public exploit code or active CISA KEV status identified at time of analysis.

CVE-2026-4475 HIGH This Week

Hard-coded credentials in YI Home Camera 2 firmware 2.1.1_20171024151200 allow adjacent network attackers to gain complete device control without authentication. The vulnerability exists in the /home/web/ipc file component and enables full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Public exploit code exists (SSVC: poc) and vendor Yi Technology did not respond to responsible disclosure, leaving devices unpatched. EPSS score is low (0.02%, 5th percentile) despite total technical impact, suggesting limited widespread exploitation but significant risk for exposed IoT camera deployments on shared networks.

A security flaw has been discovered in Beetel 777VR1 up to 01.00.09. This issue affects some unknown processing of the component WPA2 PSK. Performing a manipulation results in hard-coded credentials. The attacker must have access to the local network to execute the attack. The complexity of an attack is rather high. The exploitability is assessed as difficult. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did ...

CVE-2026-2616 HIGH POC This Week

Hard-coded credentials in the Beetel 777VR1 router's web management interface allow adjacent network attackers to gain full administrative access without authentication. Affecting firmware versions up to and including 01.00.09, this vulnerability enables complete device compromise through documented default credentials that cannot be changed through normal configuration. Publicly available exploit code exists with detailed reproduction steps, and the vendor has not responded to disclosure attempts. EPSS score of 0.19% (40th percentile) suggests limited widespread exploitation despite public POC availability, likely due to the device's limited deployment footprint and adjacent network attack requirement.
