CVE-2025-57175
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 · uneditedSiklu EtherHaul 8010 siklu-uimage-nxp-enc-10_6_2-18707-ea552dc00b devices have a static root password.
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 confidenceThe Siklu EtherHaul 8010 devices running firmware version siklu-uimage-nxp-enc-10_6_2-18707-ea552dc00b contain a static root password embedded in the firmware image. This hardcoded credential can be extracted from the firmware and used to gain full root-level administrative access to the device, bypassing normal authentication controls.

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 Ceragon/Siklu Etherhaul 8010fx devices on your networkReview your network inventory, device asset lists, or use network scanning to discover Ceragon Etherhaul 8010fx or Siklu EtherHaul 8010 devices. Check device labels, management interfaces, or SNMP inventory outputs for these model names.Affected if Any Ceragon Etherhaul 8010fx or Siklu EtherHaul 8010 device is present on the network
-
Confirm the device firmware versionAccess the device management interface or use SNMP/CLI to query the firmware version. Look for version strings containing 'siklu-uimage-nxp-enc-10_6_2' or similar Siklu firmware identifiers.Affected if The device runs any firmware version from this product line (all versions are affected)
-
Verify device is network-accessibleCheck if the device has an active IP interface and is reachable on the network. Review firewall rules and network ACLs protecting the device management interfaces.Affected if The device management interface is reachable from any network segment where untrusted users could reside
If you have any Ceragon Etherhaul 8010fx or Siklu EtherHaul 8010 device accessible on your network, you are affected by this static root password vulnerability.

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 dataReplace the default static root password with a strong, unique credential via the device management interface. If a password change is not possible through standard means, contact the vendor for a firmware update that removes hardcoded credentials. Disable remote root login access and implement network segmentation to limit exposure.
