Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires an authenticated session to the Elasticnet RNIA R18 NGI application (CVSS PR:L; the description states the attack occurs 'while logged in'), which limits the attack to users who already possess valid credentials or have otherwise gained access - consistent with the vendor's 'internal threat level' classification. No user interaction is required (UI:N) and the interface is network-reachable (AV:N), but the authentication prerequisite is the primary limiting factor. The specific vulnerable feature, endpoint, or parameter is not described in the available sources. Impact is limited to disclosure of database information; no integrity or availability impact is indicated.

Impact

This is a moderate-severity, authenticated SQL injection (CWE-89) in ZTE Elasticnet RNIA R18 NGI. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N, score 6.5) describes network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation that requires some level of prior authentication (PR:L) and yields high confidentiality impact only (C:H) with no integrity or availability effect - consistent with the description's 'steal database information while logged in'. The vendor labels this an internal threat level, reinforcing that an authenticated/internal actor is the assumed adversary rather than an anonymous remote one. No EPSS score is provided, the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV, and no public exploit or PoC reference is present, so there is no confirmed signal of active or likely exploitation. The vuln.today decision label is 'this_month', indicating a routine patch cadence rather than emergency action. Net assessment: a real but bounded issue - the authentication prerequisite and confidentiality-only impact keep it below a drop-everything priority, while the network vector and low attack complexity make it worth remediating within a normal cycle, especially where the management interface is broadly accessible to internal users.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who already holds valid (potentially low-privileged) credentials to the Elasticnet RNIA R18 NGI web interface submits crafted input into a vulnerable parameter, injecting SQL that the backend executes. This lets them read database contents beyond their authorization - for example configuration, credentials, or subscriber/operational data. No public exploit code has been identified, and the low attack complexity (AC:L) means exploitation is straightforward once authenticated access is obtained.

This Month Plan within 30 days. Why: MEDIUM severity (CVSS 4.0-6.9).

AnalysisAIv1 – Nov 02, 2026

Authenticated SQL injection in ZTE Elasticnet RNIA R18 NGI allows a logged-in attacker to read sensitive database information, with a CVSS 3.1 score of 6.5 reflecting high confidentiality impact but no integrity or availability impact. Exploitation requires valid credentials (PR:L), which aligns with the vendor's internal threat-level classification and limits exposure to users who can already authenticate to the application. There is no CISA KEV confirmation and no public exploit identified at time of analysis; the priority label is this_month.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch version is identified in the available data, so the ZTE security bulletin at https://support.zte.com.cn/zte-iccp-isupport-webui/bulletin/detail/2171542593031803240 should be consulted for the fixed release and upgrade instructions. Until a fix is applied, restrict network access to the Elasticnet RNIA R18 NGI application to trusted networks and require strong authentication with MFA for all accounts, since exploitation requires a logged-in session; this reduces exposure but does not protect against compromised credentials. Ensure the application's database account uses least privilege and cannot read unrelated schemas, accepting that some application features may require broader grants, and monitor database and application logs for anomalous query patterns, though this is detective only. Where operationally feasible, tightly filter access to the application interface, with the trade-off of reduced remote availability.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The flaw is CWE-89 SQL injection in ZTE Elasticnet RNIA R18 NGI, reachable over the network (AV:N) with low attack complexity (AC:L) and no user interaction (UI:N), but requiring an authenticated session (PR:L). The CVSS vector indicates scope unchanged and impact limited to confidentiality (C:H/I:N/A:N), so the practical effect is disclosure of database-resident information rather than modification or denial of service. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:zte:elasticnet_rnia_r18_ngi:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* identifies the affected product branch, but the specific vulnerable feature, endpoint, or parameter is not described in the available sources, and the trigger is not described in the available sources. The authentication prerequisite is the primary limiting factor and is consistent with the vendor's internal threat-level classification.
