CVE-2024-31151
CWE-798Published: October 30, 2024· Updated: Jun 17, 2026
Official Description
A security flaw involving hard-coded credentials in LevelOne WBR-6012's web services allows attackers to gain unauthorized access during the first 30 seconds post-boot. Other vulnerabilities can force a reboot, circumventing the initial time restriction for exploitation.The password string can be found at addresses 0x 803cdd0f and 0x803da3e6:
803cdd0f 41 72 69 65 ds "AriesSerenaCairryNativitaMegan"
73 53 65 72
65 6e 61 43
...
It is referenced by the function at 0x800b78b0 and simplified in the pseudocode below:
if (is_equal = strcmp(password,"AriesSerenaCairryNativitaMegan"){
ret = 3;}
Where 3 is the return value to user-level access (0 being fail and 1 being admin/backdoor).
While there's no legitimate functionality to change this password, once authenticated it is possible manually make a change by taking advantage of TALOS-2024-XXXXX using HTTP POST paramater "Pu" (new user password) in place of "Pa" (new admin password).
Technical Analysis
CVE-2024-31151 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 9.8.
