Multiple product vulnerabilities were identified in Moxa’s OnCell G3100-HSPA Series Cellular Gateway/Router. In response to this, Moxa has developed related solutions to address these vulnerabilities.

The identified vulnerability types and potential impacts are shown below:

Item Vulnerability Type Impact
1

Reliance on cookies without validation and integrity checking

The application allows a cookie parameter to consist of only digits, allowing an attacker to perform a brute force attack bypassing authentication and gaining access to device functions.
2

Improper handling of length parameter inconsistency

An attacker may be able to edit the element of an HTTP request, causing the device to become unavailable.
3

Null pointer dereference

The application does not check for a NULL value, allowing for an attacker to perform a denial of service attack.
