CVE-2024-47547
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 · uneditedRuijie Reyee OS versions 2.206.x up to but not including 2.320.x contains a weak mechanism for its users to change their passwords which leaves authentication vulnerable to brute force attacks.
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 · moderate confidenceRuijie Reyee OS versions 2.206.x through 2.319.x contain a weak password change mechanism that fails to properly protect authentication, making the system vulnerable to brute force attacks. This critical flaw in the password modification process allows attackers to potentially compromise user credentials through repeated authentication attempts.

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.
-
Check Ruijie Reyee OS versionAccess the router's web management interface and navigate to System Settings > Device Info, or use the CLI command 'show version' to retrieve the firmware version numberAffected if Installed version is >= 2.206.0 and < 2.320.0
-
Verify web management interface is accessibleConfirm the router's web interface is reachable on the network (typically ports 80, 443, or 8080) - check if HTTP/HTTPS responses are received from the deviceAffected if Web interface is exposed and version falls within the affected range
-
Test password change endpoint for rate limitingSend multiple rapid password change requests to the password change API endpoint (commonly /cgi-bin/luci/api/auth or similar) using a tool like curl or Burp Suite, observing whether any rate limiting, account lockout, or CAPTCHA is triggeredAffected if Multiple password change attempts complete without any protection mechanism (no rate limiting, no lockout, no CAPTCHA)
-
Confirm brute force protection is absentSend sequential password change requests with different usernames or from the same source IP, checking if the system allows unlimited attempts without blocking or throttlingAffected if System permits unlimited password change attempts without any defensive measures
Environment is affected if Ruijie Reyee OS version is 2.206.0 through 2.319.x and the web-based password change functionality is accessible without rate limiting, account lockout, or CAPTCHA protections in place.

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.
dbcve · scoped2.320.0
Upgrade Ruijie Reyee OS to version 2.320.x or later to remediate the weak password change mechanism vulnerability. If immediate patching is not possible, implement network-level rate limiting and brute force detection on authentication endpoints.
2.320.0 or later
- Check current Reyee OS version via web interface or CLI
- Download firmware version 2.320.0 or later from official Ruijie support channels
- Apply firmware upgrade through Reyee OS management interface or CLI following vendor documentation
- Verify upgrade to version 2.320.0 or later was successful
- Confirm the weak password recovery mechanism vulnerability is remediated
