Reyee OS: Use of Weak Credentials

CVE-2024-45722 is a high-severity use of weak credentials vulnerability in Reyee OS from Ruijie, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists version 2.320.x as the first without the flaw, so updating Reyee OS to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.46% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

Next patch cycle

High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.

What to do

  1. Update Reyee OS to 2.320.x or a later version.

Official description

Ruijie Reyee OS versions 2.206.x up to but not including 2.320.x uses weak credential mechanism that could allow an attacker to easily calculate MQTT credentials.

Source: the CVE record as published by its numbering authority, via NVD and CVE.org.

The underlying weakness: Use of Weak Credentials

The product uses weak credentials (such as a default key or hard-coded password) that can be calculated, derived, reused, or guessed by an attacker.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • When the user changes or sets a password, check the password against a database of already compromised or breached passwords. These passwords are likely to be used in password guessing attacks.
