Summary
Lantronix XPress-DR and XPress-DR-I firmware through 8.1.0.0 lacks authentication on its UDP configuration protocol on port 30718 (CWE-306). A remote attacker without credentials can read live device configuration and overwrite it, including the IP address and serial-channel forwarding records. The changes are written to EEPROM and persist across reboots. The XPress-DR product series reached end-of-life in February 2025.

Description from the CNA
Lantronix XPress-DR and XPress-DR-I (CoBos-family) firmware through 8.1.0.0 contains a missing authentication vulnerability that allows remote attackers to read and persistently overwrite device configuration by sending crafted frames to the unauthenticated UDP configuration protocol on port 30718. Attackers can send a type 0xF8 query to read live configuration data and a type 0xFD frame with exactly 0x78 body bytes to rewrite the device IP address and serial-channel forwarding records, causing changes to commit to EEPROM and persist across reboots. The XPress-DR product series reached end-of-life/end-of-support in February 2025.
