CVE-2025-54304
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
An issue was discovered on Thermo Fisher Ion Torrent OneTouch 2 INS1005527 devices. When they are powered on, an X11 display server is started. The display server listens on all network interfaces and is accessible over port 6000. The X11 access control list, by default, allows connections from 127.0.0.1 and 192.168.2.15. If a device is powered on and later connected to a network with DHCP, the device may not be assigned the 192.168.2.15 IP address, leaving the display server accessible by other devices on the network. The exposed X11 display server can then be used to gain root privileges and the ability to execute code remotely by interacting with matchbox-desktop and spawning a terminal. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.

"value": "Se descubrió un problema en los dispositivos Thermo Fisher Ion Torrent OneTouch 2 INS1005527. Cuando se encienden, se inicia un servidor de pantalla X11. El servidor de pantalla escucha en todas las interfaces de red y es accesible a través del puerto 6000. La lista de control de acceso X11, por defecto, permite conexiones desde 127.0.0.1 y 192.168.2.15. Si un dispositivo se enciende y luego se conecta a una red con DHCP, al dispositivo puede que no se le asigne la dirección IP 192.168.2.15, dejando el servidor de pantalla accesible por otros dispositivos en la red. El servidor de pantalla X11 expuesto puede entonces ser utilizado para obtener privilegios de root y la capacidad de ejecutar código de forma remota interactuando con matchbox-desktop e iniciando una terminal. NOTA: Esta vulnerabilidad solo afecta a productos que ya no son compatibles con el mantenedor."
