CVE-2024-53939

8.8 HIGH

📋 TL;DR

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges on Victure RX1800 WiFi 6 Router devices. Attackers can exploit command injection in the Dual_freq_un_apple endpoint by crafting malicious input in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz name parameters. All users of affected Victure RX1800 routers with vulnerable firmware are at risk.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • Victure RX1800 WiFi 6 Router
Versions: EN_V1.0.0_r12_110933
Operating Systems: Embedded Linux
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: Affects hardware version 1.0. Default configuration is vulnerable as the endpoint is accessible via web interface.

⚠️ Manual Verification Required

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete device compromise allowing attacker to install persistent backdoors, intercept all network traffic, pivot to internal networks, or brick the device.

🟠

Likely Case

Attacker gains full control of the router to modify DNS settings, redirect traffic, steal credentials, or join botnets.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact if device is behind firewall with restricted WAN access and proper network segmentation.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ⚠️ Yes
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ✅ No
Complexity: LOW

Proof-of-concept demonstration available in GitHub references. Exploitation requires access to admin interface but command injection is straightforward once authenticated.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Check with Victure for updated firmware

Vendor Advisory: Not publicly available

Restart Required: Yes

Instructions:

1. Check Victure support website for firmware updates. 2. Download latest firmware for RX1800. 3. Log into router admin interface. 4. Navigate to System > Firmware Upgrade. 5. Upload and apply new firmware. 6. Reboot router after update completes.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Disable remote administration

all

Prevent external access to router admin interface

Restrict admin interface access

all

Limit admin interface to specific IP addresses if supported

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Isolate router on separate VLAN with strict firewall rules
  • Implement network monitoring for unusual outbound connections from router

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check firmware version in router admin interface under System > Status. If version is EN_V1.0.0_r12_110933, device is vulnerable.

Check Version:

Login to router web interface and navigate to System > Status page

Verify Fix Applied:

After firmware update, verify version has changed from EN_V1.0.0_r12_110933. Test endpoint with safe input to confirm command injection is prevented.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual commands in system logs
  • Multiple failed login attempts followed by successful login
  • Unexpected process execution

Network Indicators:

  • Unusual outbound connections from router
  • DNS queries to suspicious domains
  • Unexpected port scans originating from router

SIEM Query:

source="router_logs" AND ("Dual_freq_un_apple" OR "command injection" OR suspicious shell commands)
