CVE-2024-53941
📋 TL;DR
The Victure RX1800 WiFi 6 Router has a vulnerability where attackers within Wi-Fi range can derive the default Wi-Fi password using the last 4 octets of the router's BSSID. This affects all users of Victure RX1800 routers with the vulnerable firmware version who haven't changed their default Wi-Fi password. Attackers can gain unauthorized network access without needing physical access to the device.

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Complete network compromise allowing attackers to intercept all traffic, launch attacks against connected devices, and potentially pivot to other networks.
Likely Case
Unauthorized Wi-Fi access leading to bandwidth theft, network reconnaissance, and potential man-in-the-middle attacks against connected devices.
If Mitigated
Limited impact if default password has been changed, though attackers could still attempt brute-force attacks on weaker passwords.
🎯 Exploit Status
Exploitation requires proximity to Wi-Fi network but no authentication. Attackers need to capture BSSID (visible in standard Wi-Fi scans).
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Check vendor for updated firmware
Vendor Advisory: https://github.com/actuator/cve/blob/main/Victure/Victure_RX1800_Security_Report.pdf
Restart Required: Yes
Instructions:
1. Check Victure website for firmware updates. 2. Download latest firmware. 3. Log into router admin interface. 4. Navigate to firmware update section. 5. Upload and apply new firmware. 6. Reboot router.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Change Default Wi-Fi Password
allImmediately change the default Wi-Fi password to a strong, unique password that doesn't follow predictable patterns.
Disable WPS
allDisable Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) to prevent alternative attack vectors.
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Change Wi-Fi password immediately to strong, random 20+ character password
- Enable MAC address filtering and disable SSID broadcasting
- Segment network with VLANs to limit lateral movement
- Monitor for unauthorized devices on network
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Check router firmware version in admin interface. If version is EN_V1.0.0_r12_110933 and using default password, device is vulnerable.Check Version:
Log into router admin interface and check System Status or Firmware Information pageVerify Fix Applied:
Verify firmware has been updated to newer version than EN_V1.0.0_r12_110933 and Wi-Fi password has been changed from default.📡 Detection & Monitoring
