CVE-2026-29128 Details
Description
IDC SFX2100 Satellite Receiver firmware ships with multiple daemon configuration files for routing components (e.g., zebra, bgpd, ospfd, and ripd) that are owned by root but world-readable. The configuration files (e.g., zebra.conf, bgpd.conf, ospfd.conf, ripd.conf) contain hardcoded or otherwise insecure plaintext passwords (including “enable”/privileged-mode credentials). A remote actor is able to abuse the reuse/hardcoded nature of these credentials to further access other systems in the network, gain a foothold on the satellite receiver or potentially locally privilege escalate.
A vulnerability exists in the IDC SFX2100 Satellite Receiver firmware, which is used by organizations such as the US Department of Defense and the European Space Agency. The issue arises from multiple daemon configuration files for routing components, including zebra, bgpd, ospfd, and ripd, which are owned by root but world-readable. These configuration files contain hardcoded or otherwise insecure plaintext passwords, including 'enable' credentials. A remote actor could exploit the reuse of these credentials to access other systems on the network, gain a foothold on the satellite receiver, or potentially escalate privileges locally.
