Impact

The CVSS vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N indicates network-accessible attack vector with low complexity but requires prior authentication (PR:L), no user interaction needed (UI:N), and impacts only integrity with low severity. While the integrity impact is rated low, the actual risk is contextually higher: command execution on router firmware typically grants system-level access far beyond the stated 'integrity' impact. The moderate CVSS score of 4.3 understates the threat; however, exploitation requires an authenticated attacker or social engineering of an admin user to visit a malicious webpage. No widespread exploitation has been reported in CISA KEV catalogs or major threat intelligence feeds, and no public proof-of-concept code is known to be circulating. For organizations still running version 1.2.0 devices in production, this represents a real but not critical risk—prioritize patching within normal maintenance windows rather than emergency response, but do not deprioritize indefinitely.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker identifies that a network administrator at a target organization uses Telesquare SDT-CS3B1 routers. The attacker crafts a malicious webpage containing hidden image tags or JavaScript that issue HTTP requests to the router's admin interface (e.g., /cgi-bin/admin?action=execute_command). When the administrator visits the attacker's webpage (via phishing, malvertising, or a compromised legitimate site), the forged requests execute in the context of the administrator's authenticated session, allowing the attacker to modify router configuration, install backdoors in the device firmware, redirect traffic, or extract sensitive network data. No additional user interaction (such as clicking a button) is required beyond visiting the page, making this a high-confidence exploitation path in organizations where admin access is shared or where administrators browse untrusted content.

AnalysisAIv1 – Mar 16, 2026

A cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability exists in Telesquare SKT LTE Router SDT-CS3B1 version 1.2.0 that allows authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary system commands without additional validation. An attacker can craft a malicious webpage that, when visited by a logged-in router administrator, triggers unauthorized administrative actions with full router privileges. While the CVSS score of 4.3 is moderate and no active exploitation has been widely reported, the ability to achieve command execution on network infrastructure devices represents a meaningful risk to affected deployments.

RemediationAI

Immediately upgrade the SDT-CS3B1 router firmware to a patched version released by Telesquare after version 1.2.0; consult the vendor's support portal or contact Telesquare directly to obtain the latest firmware release and installation instructions. As an interim mitigation, restrict administrative web interface access to trusted internal IP addresses only using firewall rules, implement network segmentation to limit which users can access the router's management interface, enforce strong and unique passwords on all administrative accounts, and ensure administrator browsers are isolated from untrusted web content (e.g., via separate devices or virtual machines for administrative tasks). Additionally, monitor router access logs for suspicious administrative actions and consider implementing HTTP-only and Secure cookie flags if the router's settings allow.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The vulnerability stems from inadequate CSRF token validation in the router's web administration interface, classified under CWE-352 (Cross-Site Request Forgery). The Telesquare SDT-CS3B1 is an LTE gateway device running firmware version 1.2.0 that exposes administrative functions via HTTP requests without proper anti-CSRF mechanisms. When an authenticated user (typically the network administrator) is logged into the router's web interface, an attacker can embed forged requests in malicious HTML or JavaScript to perform state-changing operations. The absence of request origin validation, SameSite cookie attributes, or per-request CSRF tokens allows these cross-origin requests to execute with the victim's authenticated session context, effectively bypassing the authentication boundary that would normally protect administrative operations.

DescriptionCVE.org

Telesquare SKT LTE Router SDT-CS3B1 version 1.2.0 contains a cross-site request forgery vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary system commands by exploiting missing request validation. Attackers can craft malicious web pages that perform administrative actions when visited by logged-in users, enabling command execution with router privileges.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Organizations using Telesquare SKT LTE Router SDT-CS3B1 version 1.2.0 should be aware of moderate risk from CVE-2017-20221, a cross-site request forgery vulnerability rated CVSS 4.3. Users could be tricked into performing unintended actions. Proof-of-concept code is publicly available. Organizations should apply vendor updates when available and monitor for exploitation.

Business Impact: Low
Compensating Controls

Apply vendor patch. If patching is delayed: implement SameSite cookie attributes and anti-CSRF tokens.
