CVE-2024-13870

An improper access control vulnerability exists in Bitdefender Box 1 (firmware version 1.3.52.928 and below) that allows an unauthenticated attacker to downgrade the device's firmware to an older, potentially vulnerable version of a Bitdefender-signed firmware. The attack requires Bitdefender BOX to be booted in Recovery Mode and that the attacker be present within the WiFi range of the BOX unit.

Potential internet exposure

Potential exposure only — not proof of vulnerability.Shodan results indicate potentially internet-exposed products, not confirmed vulnerable systems. They do not confirm that any returned system is vulnerable to CVE-2024-13870.

Product-level CPE searches intentionally omit version fields and NVD version-range or configuration certainty. Verify the exact product version and configuration independently.

How this vector reads

CVSS 4.0 base metrics decoded below. This explanation does not recalculate or change the NVD score.

Attack Vector (AV): Local. The attacker needs local access to the vulnerable system.
Attack Complexity (AC): High. Successful exploitation depends on conditions outside the attacker's control.
Attack Requirements (AT): None. No prerequisite deployment or execution condition is required.
Privileges Required (PR): None. The attacker needs no privileges on the vulnerable system.
User Interaction (UI): Active. A targeted user must perform a specific action for exploitation to succeed.
Vulnerable System Confidentiality (VC): Low. There is a limited impact to this security property.
Vulnerable System Integrity (VI): Low. There is a limited impact to this security property.
Vulnerable System Availability (VA): None. There is no direct impact to this security property.
Subsequent System Confidentiality (SC): Low. There is a limited impact to this security property.
Subsequent System Integrity (SI): Low. There is a limited impact to this security property.
Subsequent System Availability (SA): None. There is no direct impact to this security property.

Optional CVSS v4 metrics remain in the raw vector; only base metrics are expanded here.
