CVE-2020-10274
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedThe access tokens for the REST API are directly derived (sha256 and base64 encoding) from the publicly available default credentials from the Control Dashboard (refer to CVE-2020-10270 for related flaws). This flaw in combination with CVE-2020-10273 allows any attacker connected to the robot networks (wired or wireless) to exfiltrate all stored data (e.g. indoor mapping images) and associated metadata from the robot's database.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceThe REST API access tokens are derived using sha256 and base64 encoding from publicly available default credentials from the Control Dashboard. Combined with CVE-2020-10273, this allows any attacker with network access (wired or wireless) to the robot network to exfiltrate all stored data including indoor mapping images and associated metadata from the robot's database.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify affected robot products on your networkScan your network for devices with product identifiers: Mir100, Mir200, Mir250, Mir500, Mir1000, Er200, Er Lite, or Er Flex. Check the robot's web interface or documentation for firmware version information.Affected if Any of these robot models are present on your network and the Control Dashboard is network-accessible.
-
Check if Control Dashboard is network-accessibleAttempt to access the robot's Control Dashboard web interface from a non-localhost IP address. Look for HTTP/HTTPS responses on common ports like 80, 443, 8080.Affected if The Control Dashboard is reachable from network segments accessible to untrusted users.
-
Verify default credentials are still activeAttempt to log in to the Control Dashboard using the publicly known default credentials (refer to CVE-2020-10273 for the specific default username/password pairs).Affected if Default credentials still grant access to the Control Dashboard.
-
Test REST API token generation from default credentialsUse the default credentials to authenticate against the REST API endpoint and observe if access tokens are generated using sha256 and base64 derivation from those credentials.Affected if REST API access tokens can be generated using default credentials, allowing unauthorized data access.
You are affected if any Mir or Easyrobotics robot with a network-accessible Control Dashboard still uses default credentials, allowing attackers to derive REST API tokens and exfiltrate data.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataImmediately change all default credentials on the Control Dashboard and implement proper secure token generation that is independent of credentials. Additionally, segment the robot network and revoke all exposed tokens to prevent ongoing data exfiltration.
