CVE-2018-0634 describes a critical vulnerability in NEC Aterm HC100RC devices running firmware version 1.0.1 and earlier. This flaw allows an authenticated attacker with administrative privileges to execute arbitrary operating system commands by manipulating the FactoryPassword or bootmode parameters within a specific URL. With a CVSS score of 7.2 (HIGH), this vulnerability presents a significant risk due to its low attack complexity and complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While no public exploits, Metasploit modules, or Nuclei templates are currently available, and there is minimal community discussion or media coverage, the potential for a highly privileged attacker to gain full control of the affected device remains.
