Technical Summary
CVE-2026-49002 is an improper access control vulnerability (CWE-284) affecting ZTE ZXUniPOS NDS-LTE software versions V24.30.40CP02 and earlier, and V24.40.40 and earlier. The vulnerability arises because the application fails to properly verify user permissions, enabling unauthorized access to sensitive system data, including configuration information. This can lead to unauthorized viewing and modification of critical system settings. The CVSS 3.1 score of 9.1 reflects network attack vector, no privileges required, no user interaction, and high confidentiality and integrity impact. No patch or official remediation level has been disclosed by ZTE at this time.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability allows attackers without any privileges or user interaction to access and modify sensitive system configuration data, compromising confidentiality and integrity of the affected system. This can lead to unauthorized changes that may disrupt system operations or expose sensitive information. There are no known exploits in the wild currently.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no official fix or remediation level has been provided by ZTE, affected users should monitor ZTE's advisories closely. Until a patch is available, restrict access to the affected systems to trusted personnel only and consider additional access controls or network segmentation to limit exposure.
