In combination with another attack (unauthenticated password change), the attacker can circumvent the authentication requirement.","published":"2019-04-25T20:29:02.000Z","lastModified":"2026-06-17T01:43:54.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"cve@mitre.org","cvss":{"version":"3.0","score":8,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:A/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-78"],"affected":["audiocodes/405hd firmware"],"epss":{"score":0.04081,"percentile":0.90655,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[{"date":"2026-09-21","score":0.02813,"percentile":0.85837},{"date":"2026-09-22","score":0.04081,"percentile":0.90257}]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.08%).
