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 · unedited
Mercku M6a devices through 2.1.0 allow password changes via intranet CSRF 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 · high confidence

CSRF vulnerability in Mercku M6a devices through version 2.1.0 allows authenticated users on the intranet to be tricked into changing their passwords via malicious crafted requests without their consent.

MitigationImplement anti-CSRF tokens or SameSite cookie attributes for the password change functionality and all state-changing operations; release firmware update 2.1.1 or later to patch the vulnerability.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify Mercku M6a device model
    Access the device web interface or check the device label/marketing materials to confirm the model is Mercku M6a
    Affected if The device is not a Mercku M6a model
  2. Check firmware version
    Log into the device web interface and navigate to System Settings or Status page to view the firmware version number
    Affected if Firmware version is 2.1.0 or earlier (versions 2.1.1 and later are patched)
  3. Verify password change endpoint lacks CSRF token
    Use a browser dev tool or HTTP proxy to capture a password change request. Inspect the request parameters for a CSRF token or anti-CSRF token field
    Affected if No CSRF token parameter is present in the password change POST request
  4. Check SameSite cookie attribute on session cookies
    Capture HTTP responses from the device web interface and examine the Set-Cookie headers for session-related cookies
    Affected if Session cookies are missing SameSite attribute or set to SameSite=None without Secure flag
  5. Confirm device is accessible on intranet
    Verify the device is accessible from the internal network without authentication barriers (e.g., same LAN/Wi-Fi network)
    Affected if Device admin interface is reachable from the intranet without additional authentication

User is affected if they have a Mercku M6a device running firmware version 2.1.0 or earlier where the password change function lacks CSRF token protection and the device is accessible from the internal network.
