Q1What is this vulnerability? (Essence + Consequences)
π¨ **Essence**: A buffer error in Broadcom-based cable modems. π₯ **Consequences**: Remote attackers can send crafted Websocket requests to execute arbitrary code. Total compromise of the device is possible!
Q2Root Cause? (CWE/Flaw)
π‘οΈ **Root Cause**: Buffer Error. β οΈ **Flaw**: Improper handling of memory buffers during Websocket request processing. (CWE ID not specified in data).
Q3Who is affected? (Versions/Components)
π¦ **Affected Products**: Sagemcom F@st 3890 (v < 50.10.21_T4, < 05.76.6.3f), F@st 3686 (v 3.428.0, 4.83.0). NETGEAR CG3700EMR & C6250EMR (v 2.01.05, 2.01.03). Techni... (truncated).
Q4What can hackers do? (Privileges/Data)
π **Attacker Actions**: Execute arbitrary code remotely. π **Data Impact**: Full control over the modem. Potential access to network traffic, credentials, and connected devices.
Q5Is exploitation threshold high? (Auth/Config)
β‘ **Threshold**: LOW. π **Auth**: Remote exploitation via Websocket. No local access or authentication required mentioned. Easy to trigger from outside.
Q6Is there a public Exp? (PoC/Wild Exploitation)
π **Exploit Status**: YES. Public PoC available at `github.com/Lyrebirds/Fast8690-exploit`. Detailed report: `Cable-Haunt-Report`. Wild exploitation risk is HIGH.
Q7How to self-check? (Features/Scanning)
π **Self-Check**: Scan for Broadcom-based modems. Check firmware versions against the list: Sagemcom & NETGEAR models. Look for Websocket interfaces exposed to the internet.
π§ **No Patch?**: Isolate the device. Block external Websocket access via firewall. Disable remote management features if possible. Monitor for anomalous traffic.
Q10Is it urgent? (Priority Suggestion)
π₯ **Priority**: CRITICAL. π¨ **Urgency**: HIGH. Remote Code Execution (RCE) with public exploits means immediate patching or mitigation is required to prevent compromise.
