CVE-2026-49202 is a high-severity vulnerability in the Acer Connect M6E 5G Portable WiFi Router. It allows access to internal multimedia session archives without requiring authentication. The issue is worsened by overly permissive Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) rules, which enable cross-site theft of these resources. No official patch or remediation guidance has been provided by the vendor as of the publication date.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CVE-2026-49202) involves improper authentication (CWE-287) in the Acer Connect M6E 5G Portable WiFi Router. Internal multimedia session archives are accessible without authentication, and loose CORS policies permit cross-origin access, increasing the risk of unauthorized data theft. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 8.8, indicating a high impact with network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges or user interaction required, and high confidentiality impact. No vendor advisory or patch is currently available.
Potential Impact
An attacker can access sensitive internal multimedia session archives without authentication, potentially leading to unauthorized disclosure of private data. The loose CORS configuration further enables cross-site attacks that can steal these resources from a victim's browser context. This compromises confidentiality and privacy of the affected device's multimedia data.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, users should consider restricting network access to the device and disabling remote management features if possible to reduce exposure.
