Summary

CSL 1010 M2M 3G WiFi Module firmware through 2.2.1.4 contains a weak encryption vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to recover all stored secrets in plaintext by reversing a single-byte XOR cipher with a static key. Attackers can trivially decrypt the Router.cfg backup file to expose web administration and telnet passwords, WPA/WPA2 pre-shared keys, PPPoE and 3G/APN credentials, and SIM identifiers including IMSI and IMEI.

Risk Assessment

The risk is critical as attackers can gain full access to sensitive credentials and device configuration, potentially leading to device and network compromise.

Recommendation

It is recommended to immediately upgrade the firmware to a version with strong encryption and change all compromised passwords and keys.
