Official Description
Cobham Aviator 700D and 700E satellite terminals have hardcoded passwords for the (1) debug, (2) prod, (3) do160, and (4) flrp programs, which allows physically proximate attackers to gain privileges by sending a password over a serial line.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2014-2964 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
