Samsung DSL Modem Multiple Remote Vulnerabilities

Multiple vulnerabilities are reported to exist in Samsung DSL modems.

The first issue is an information disclosure issue due to a failure of the device to block access to potentially sensitive files.

The second issue is a default backdoor account vulnerability. It is reported that multiple accounts exist on the modem by default, allowing remote attackers to gain administrative privileges on the modem.

These vulnerabilities may allow remote attackers to gain access to potentially sensitive information, or to gain administrative access to the affected device.

Samsung DSL modems running software version SMDK8947v1.2 are reported to be affected. Other devices and software versions are also likely affected.
