CVE-2019-9229 describes a critical vulnerability in AudioCodes Mediant 500L-MSBR, 500-MBSR, M800B-MSBR, and 800C-MSBR devices running firmware versions F7.20A to F7.20A.251. An internal interface, accessible via a link-local address, exposes multiple Quagga VTYs. Attackers on the local network can authenticate using an unchangeable default password ("1234") to execute unauthorized actions. This vulnerability carries a CVSS v3.0 score of 8.8 (HIGH), indicating a severe risk. Its attack vector is adjacent network, with low attack complexity, requiring no user interaction or privileges, and can lead to complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The EPSS score is very low, suggesting a minimal likelihood of exploitation. Currently, there is no evidence of active exploitation, and no public exploit code is available in Metasploit, Nuclei, or ExploitDB. Community discussion and media coverage for this CVE are also minimal, suggesting it has not garnered significant attention from researchers or the public.
