Multiple Vulnerabilities in GX Earth ONT Models


Indian – Computer Emergency Response Team (https://www.cert-in.org.in)


Severity Rating: HIGH


Systems Affected


GX Earth 2022 – version E2022 – 3.1.2A, 3.1.5AV, E2022 1.1ASL

GX Earth 1010 – version E1010-1.1ASL

Overview


Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in GX Earth ONT models, which could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code, obtain sensitive information and gain unauthorized access to the targeted device.


Target Audience:

End-users/Administrators of GX Earth 2022 and Earth 1010


Risk Assessment:

Risk of OS Command Injections, Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks and exposure of sensitive information.


Impact Assessment:

Potential for remote code execution, information disclosure and device compromise.


Description


The GX Earth 2022 and Earth 1010 are dual-band Wi-Fi enabled GPON optical network terminal (ONTs) used for broadband fiber connectivity and web-based network management.


1. Command Injection Vulnerability ( CVE-2026-45431   )


This vulnerability exists in GX Earth ONT models due to improper handling of user-supplied input in multiple diagnostic functions in its web management interface. An authenticated remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by injecting arbitrary and executing OS commands on the targeted device.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow the attacker to perform remote code execution with root privileges on the targeted device.


2. Cleartext Transmission of Credentials Vulnerability ( CVE-2026-45432   )


This vulnerability exists in GX Earth ONT models due to the transmission of user credentials in plaintext over HTTP in its web management interface. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by intercepting network traffic to obtain sensitive authentication information, which could lead to unauthorized access to the targeted device.


3. Hardcoded Cryptographic Key Vulnerability ( CVE-2026-45433   )


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.
