CVE-2024-9677

Estado: AnalizadaAlta (7.8)—

The insufficiently protected credentials vulnerability in the CLI command of the USG FLEX H series uOS firmware version V1.21 and earlier versions could allow an authenticated local attacker to gain privilege escalation by stealing the authentication token of a login administrator. Note that this attack could be successful only if the administrator has not logged out.

CVSS

Versión: 3.1
Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Puntuación base: 7.8

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.15%
Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 4
Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).

🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK

Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.

ExplotaciónT1068 Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation90 %
Impacto principalT1552 Unsecured Credentialscredential access85 %
Impacto secundarioT1078 Valid Accountsstealth · persistence · privilege escalation · initial access80 %

Acceso local autenticado sin interacción (AV:L, PR:L, UI:N) sin ambigüedad indica escalada de privilegios (T1068). El atacante roba token de administrador (T1552: credenciales en memoria/almacenamiento insuficientemente protegido) para asumir cuenta admin (T1078).

Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
