Title
Hardcoded Cryptographic Key Vulnerability in GX Earth ONT Models
Summary
This vulnerability exists in GX Earth 2022 ONT models due to the presence of hardcoded RSA private key within the device firmware. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by extracting the cryptographic private key from the firmware, which could lead to decryption of HTTPS traffic and Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks on the targeted device.
