What to do
AI-suggested
Since exploitation requires physical access to the UART interface, physical security controls to restrict access to the device hardware are recommended. Monitor vendor advisories for any future updates or patches addressing this issue.
Description
U-SPEED AC1200 Gigabit Wi-Fi Router (Model: T18-21K) V1.0 is vulnerable to Incorrect Access Control. The device exposes a UART interface that lacks authentication, authorization, or access control mechanisms. An attacker with physical access to the UART pins can connect to the interface and gain unrestricted access to device functionality.
