CVE-ID: CVE-2025-44963

Affected Software: RUCKUS Network Director Multiple Products

Affected Versions: All versions before 4.5

Vulnerability: The RUCKUS Network Director platform utilizes JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) for authenticating and authorizing administrative sessions. This vulnerability exists because a static, hardcoded secret key is used to sign these tokens across all installations. An attacker who obtains this hardcoded key can independently craft a malicious JWT, sign it with the compromised key, and present it to the RND server. The server will validate the token as legitimate, granting the attacker full administrator-level privileges, effectively bypassing all authentication mechanisms.

Business Impact

This vulnerability is rated as Critical with a CVSS score of 9.0. Successful exploitation grants an attacker complete administrative control over the RUCKUS Network Director platform. This level of access could lead to severe business consequences, including the ability to reconfigure, disable, or reboot managed network devices (switches, access points), causing widespread service outages. The attacker could also exfiltrate sensitive network configurations, monitor network traffic, create rogue user accounts, and use the compromised RND as a pivot point to launch further attacks against the internal network. The potential impact includes significant operational downtime, data breaches, financial loss, and reputational damage.

Remediation Plan

Immediate Action:
