Exploitation Conditions

The CVSS 4.0 vector (PR:N/AC:L/AT:N/UI:N) confirms no authentication is required, no special attack conditions apply, and no user interaction is needed. The sole prerequisite is network reachability to the NE2-D11 device's configuration endpoints. Exploitation is limited by network segmentation: if the device is isolated on an OT-only network segment with no access from untrusted hosts, remote exploitation from corporate IT networks or the internet is prevented. No special firmware feature, non-default configuration, or specific device state is required - the vulnerability is present in the device's default operational mode.

Impact

The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.7 with VI:H reflects a meaningful integrity impact - an unauthenticated network attacker can overwrite device configuration entirely. The vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) indicates exploitation is straightforward with no preconditions beyond network reachability, making the technical barrier very low. No EPSS probability data was provided, so quantified exploitation likelihood cannot be stated. KEV status is absent, indicating no CISA-confirmed active exploitation; however, ICS-CERT involvement elevates operational concern because NE2-D11 modules deployed in industrial environments may control physical processes where unauthorized configuration changes could have operational consequences. The wildcard CPE scope means no firmware version is exempt, complicating remediation at scale in OT contexts where devices often run unmanaged for long periods. The primary limiting factor is network segmentation: devices isolated on OT-only segments inaccessible from untrusted hosts are effectively protected without patching.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker with network access to the NE2-D11 - such as a threat actor who has pivoted into an OT network segment or an insider on the same LAN - sends standard unauthenticated HTTP requests to the device's configuration API endpoints. Without any credential or exploit payload requirement, the attacker reads current device settings (potentially including credentials or network topology data) and then overwrites parameters such as serial communication settings, network addresses, or access controls. This manipulation could disrupt the device's industrial bridging role or serve as a foothold to further pivot within the OT environment.

AnalysisAIv3 – Aug 28, 2026

Unauthenticated remote access to configuration endpoints in the Ebyte NE2-D11 industrial wireless module firmware allows any network-reachable attacker to read or overwrite sensitive device settings due to missing server-side authorization (CWE-862). The CVSS 4.0 vector (PR:N/AV:N/AC:L) confirms no credentials or special conditions are needed, and full device configuration compromise is possible. Reported via CISA ICS-CERT advisory ICSA-26-237-06; no public exploit code or active KEV-listed exploitation is confirmed at time of analysis.

Earlier versions of this analysis (2)
v2 Aug 28, 2026 - 00:45 cvss changed CVSS 8.7

Unauthenticated remote modification of device settings is possible in Ebyte NE2-D11 firmware due to missing server-side authorization checks on configuration endpoints. The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.7 with PR:N and AV:N confirms any network-reachable attacker can interact with these endpoints without credentials, achieving high integrity impact by altering sensitive device configuration. Reported by ICS-CERT under advisory ICSA-26-237-06, this affects OT environments relying on NE2-D11 serial-to-network modules; no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis.

v1 Aug 27, 2026 - 23:57 CVSS 7.5

Missing server-side authorization in Ebyte NE2-D11 firmware exposes configuration endpoints to unauthenticated network attackers, enabling both read and write access to sensitive device settings. Per the CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N vector, any host with network reachability can interact with affected endpoints without credentials, with the vendor description warning of potential full compromise of device functionality. The vulnerability was disclosed via CISA ICS Advisory ICSA-26-237-06; no public exploit code or CISA KEV active-exploitation listing has been identified at time of analysis.

RemediationAI

Consult the CISA ICS-CERT advisory ICSA-26-237-06 at https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/ics-advisories/icsa-26-237-06 and the CSAF file at https://github.com/cisagov/CSAF/blob/develop/csaf_files/OT/white/2026/icsa-26-237-06.json for vendor-issued firmware update guidance; no exact patched firmware version is confirmed from the available data. As compensating controls pending a patch, place NE2-D11 devices exclusively on isolated OT network segments with firewall rules blocking all access to device configuration endpoints from untrusted hosts or corporate IT networks - note this may restrict remote management capabilities. Where possible, restrict device-level network exposure to only the minimum required engineering workstations by IP allowlist. Enable configuration change alerting or integrity monitoring if the device supports it. Do not expose configuration endpoints to internet-facing interfaces under any circumstances.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The Ebyte NE2-D11 is an embedded industrial wireless/serial network module running proprietary firmware, commonly deployed in OT and ICS environments for serial-to-network communication bridging. The root cause is CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) - the device's configuration API endpoints perform no server-side checks to verify whether a requesting party holds authority to access or alter settings. The CVSS 4.0 base vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) confirms these endpoints are exposed over the network and reachable without credentials, user interaction, or any specific precondition. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:ebyte:ebyte_ne2-d11_firmware:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* uses a wildcard version, indicating all known firmware releases are affected and that the flaw is architectural rather than introduced in a specific release.

DescriptionCVE.org

Certain configuration endpoints may lack proper server-side authorization checks, allowing unauthorized users to access or modify sensitive device settings. This could result in full compromise of device functionality.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

The Ebyte NE2-D11 industrial wireless module contains a critical remote authorization bypass that allows any network-connected attacker to read and modify device configurations without credentials. This vulnerability directly threatens operational continuity in manufacturing, utility, and critical infrastructure environments where these modules control equipment settings and communications. Organizations using this hardware face immediate risk of process disruption, device compromise, and potential safety implications.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations include: (1) network segmentation isolating affected devices from untrusted networks, (2) firewall rules blocking remote access to configuration endpoints, (3) enable device-level logging and alerting for unauthorized configuration attempts, (4) restrict access to authorized engineering personnel only, (5) establish a communication protocol with Ebyte for patch notification.
