CVE-2018-0284: Cisco Meraki Local Status Page Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

A vulnerability in the local status page functionality of the Cisco Meraki MR, MS, MX, Z1, and Z3 product lines could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to modify device configuration files. The vulnerability occurs when handling requests to the local status page. An exploit could allow the attacker to establish an interactive session to the device with elevated privileges. The attacker could then use the elevated privileges to further compromise the device or obtain additional configuration data from the device that is being exploited.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw lets an authenticated remote attacker abuse the Cisco Meraki local status page to gain higher privileges on affected devices. Successful exploitation could change configuration files or expose additional configuration data. The business risk is device compromise and configuration manipulation, especially where older Meraki firmware remains deployed. Exposure is most likely in environments running Cisco Meraki MR firmware before 24.13, MS/M5 before 9.37, or MX/Z1/Z3 before 13.32. Risk depends on whether the local status page is reachable and whether attacker authentication is possible. Treat this as a high-priority network infrastructure remediation if affected Meraki devices are still on old firmware. The issue requires authentication, but compromise could alter device configuration and support further device-level compromise. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected Meraki MR devices to 24.13 or later.; Upgrade affected Meraki MS/M5 devices to 9.37 or later.; Upgrade affected MX, Z1, and Z3 devices to 13.32 or later..
