Affected Products


Internet Initiative Japan Inc.
  • SEIL/B1 firmware 1.00 to 3.11
  • SEIL/neu 2FE Plus firmware 1.80 to 2.10
  • SEIL/Turbo firmware 1.80 to 2.10
  • SEIL/X1 firmware 1.00 to 3.11
  • SEIL/X2 firmware 1.00 to 3.11
  • SEIL/x86 firmware 1.00 to 1.61

Impact

An attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code.

Accoding to the developer, all versions of SEIL/86, SEIL/B1, SEIL/X1, SEIL/X2 3.00 through 3.11 process PPPoE packets in a non-administrative mode of operation, therefore the affect of this vulnerability is limited to the PPPAC service being stopped.
