|
| Exploitation Conditions | Requires a valid authenticated session at a non-administrative ('user level') account on a Comelit 1456B Multi-User Gateway running firmware 2.9.1 or 2.10.0, with network reachability to the device's management function. The limiting factor is that the attacker must already possess low-privilege credentials (PR:L) - it is not exploitable fully unauthenticated - but there is no user interaction, no non-default configuration, and no complexity barrier beyond that; the administrative password-change endpoint simply fails to enforce server-side authorization, so any authenticated user can call it against a default deployment. |
| Impact | The vendor CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, 8.8 High) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity flaw requiring only an existing authenticated low-privilege session and no user interaction - a plausible rating for a broken-authorization bug that lets any user overwrite the installer/administrator credential. Overwriting the admin password yields effective account takeover, which justifies the full C:H/I:H/A:H impact: the attacker gains administrative control (confidentiality), alters the credential (integrity), and can lock out the legitimate installer (availability). No EPSS score, CISA KEV listing, SSVC decision data, or public exploit was provided, so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no evidence of active or automatable exploitation; this reads as a credible, high-impact but not-yet-weaponized post-authentication privilege-escalation issue rather than a mass-exploited internet threat. The single reference is only a vendor product page (not a security advisory), so affected-version and patch details rest on the NVD description alone. Note the CWE assignment (CWE-425 Direct Request/Forced Browsing) is a loose fit - the described defect is fundamentally a missing server-side authorization check (closer to CWE-862/CWE-285) on an administrative function. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who already holds any valid low-privilege account on a 1456B Multi-User Gateway (firmware 2.9.1 or 2.10.0) directly invokes the administrative password-change function over the network; because the server never checks that the caller is authorized, the request succeeds and overwrites the installer (administrator) account password. The attacker then logs in as the installer with the new credential, achieving full administrative takeover of the VIP intercom/door-entry gateway. No public proof-of-concept or exploit code was identified at time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 01, 2026
Any authenticated low-privilege user on a Comelit Multi-User Gateway for the VIP System (model 1456B) running firmware 2.9.1 or 2.10.0 can overwrite the installer (administrator) account password, because the administrative password-change function performs no server-side authorization check on the caller's role. The flaw is network-reachable with low complexity and no user interaction, but it is not fully unauthenticated: exploitation requires an existing 'user level' session, as reflected in the CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, 8.8 High). Successfully resetting the installer credential hands the attacker full administrative control of the gateway and its managed access-control configuration; no public exploit code was identified at time of analysis, and no vendor-released patch was identified in the available intelligence at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch was identified in the available intelligence at time of analysis, so remediation must begin with compensating controls until Comelit publishes fixed firmware for the 1456B Multi-User Gateway (monitor https://pro.comelitgroup.com/en-us/product/1456B and engage Comelit support directly for a firmware status and remediation timeline). The highest-value control is to remove reachability to the gateway's management function from untrusted networks: place the 1456B on a dedicated management VLAN, block inbound access to its administrative interface at the perimeter firewall, and require VPN or jump-host access for administration. The trade-off is loss of direct remote management, and any firewall change must be validated so it does not break legitimate door-entry or VIP System operation. Second, treat every 'user level' credential as an administrative credential for risk purposes: rotate all low-privilege account passwords on affected devices, remove accounts that are not strictly required, and avoid shared credentials, accepting the operational cost of re-provisioning user access. Third, alert on and review audit logs (or syslog if the gateway forwards them) for password-change operations, especially any change affecting the installer account and any change originating from a non-administrative session, so that active abuse is detected even though it cannot be blocked; log fidelity on embedded gateways is often limited, so this should not be relied on as the sole control. Finally, because the bug allows the installer password to be silently overwritten, verify the integrity of the installer credential on all 1456B units at 2.9.1/2.10.0 and reset it if there is any indication of tampering, and confirm configuration has not been altered by re-baselining the device against a known-good configuration.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The issue is mapped to CWE-425 (Direct Request / 'Forced Browsing'), the class in which a privileged function is reachable by directly calling its endpoint because authorization is enforced only in the presentation layer (menu visibility, UI state) and never re-validated server-side. Applied here, the administrative password-change routine on the 1456B Multi-User Gateway accepts requests from any authenticated session, including the lower-privileged 'user level' role, and applies the supplied value to the installer/administrator account. The device is a multi-user gateway in Comelit's VIP door-entry/access-control ecosystem, so the installer account typically governs device configuration and the access-control logic it brokers; overwriting that credential therefore yields full administrative control, consistent with the High Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability ratings in the assessed vector. The supplied CPE record, cpe:2.3:a:comelit_group_s.p.a.:1456b_multi-user_gateway:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, identifies the vendor (Comelit Group S.p.A.) and product but wildcards the version field, so the CPE alone does not enumerate affected firmware builds; the concrete affected versions named in the report are 2.9.1 and 2.10.0. Note that the accompanying tag labels this 'Information Disclosure', which understates the demonstrated impact: the practical consequence is credential overwrite and privilege escalation to administrator, not mere data exposure.

DescriptionCVE.org
Comelit Multi-User Gateway for VIP System (model 1456B) firmware versions 2.9.1 and 2.10.0 fail to enforce server-side authorization on an administrative password-change function. An authenticated user level can invoke this function to overwrite the installer (administrator) account password.
Executive ViewAI
A privilege-escalation flaw in the Comelit Multi-User Gateway (model 1456B) running firmware 2.9.1 or 2.10.0 allows any low-privilege user with an existing session to silently reset the installer administrator password, taking full control of the building access-control system. Because this gateway governs physical door access and credential configuration, a single compromised operator account could be leveraged to grant unauthorized physical entry or lock out legitimate administrators across every managed site. Leadership should treat this as a physical-security exposure, not merely an IT issue, since the affected asset sits on the network but controls real-world access to facilities.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: restrict network reachability of the gateway's administrative interface to a dedicated management VLAN or trusted admin hosts; disable or tightly limit all unnecessary 'user level' accounts, since exploitation requires an existing low-privilege session (authenticated, per CVSS PR:L); monitor and alert on administrative password-change events; rotate the installer/administrator credential and verify it has not been altered; and maintain physical/operational fallback procedures in case gateway administration is disrupted.
