CVE-2026-77977: Ebyte NE2-D11 authentication bypass in configuration utility

CVE-2026-77977 · Severity: high · CVSS 8.1 · Published 2026-08-28

The Ebyte NE2-D11 is an industrial gateway device used in critical infrastructure environments to manage network communications and device configuration. The configuration utility lacks proper authentication controls, allowing unauthenticated attackers on an adjacent network to perform destructive administrative actions such as rebooting the device or restoring factory settings. This results in loss of configuration and service availability, disrupting industrial operations.

Technical details

The vulnerability is a missing authentication issue (CWE-306) in the Ebyte NE2-D11's web management interface. The configuration utility fails to consistently enforce authentication before granting access to critical administrative functions. An attacker on an adjacent network can invoke disruptive operations including device reboot and factory reset without providing valid credentials, particularly when default credentials remain in place. The attack requires network access to the management interface but no authentication or user interaction. The vendor acknowledged the vulnerability and indicated patch development but has not released a fix or provided a timeline.
