A vulnerability in multiple Moxa NPort device series (including 5110, 5130/5150, 5200, 5400, 5600, 5100A, 5200A, 5150AI-M12, 5250AI-M12, 5450AI-M12, 5600-8-DT, 5600-8-DTL, 6x50, and IA5450A) allows an attacker to repeatedly attempt administration passwords without any authentication or lockout mechanism. This flaw exists in firmware versions prior to the specified fixed versions for each model.

This repository contains a single Metasploit auxiliary module: 'moxa_credentials_recovery.rb'. The module targets Moxa industrial devices (NPort, OnCell, MGate) that expose the Moxa protocol service on UDP port 4800. It exploits CVE-2016-9361, which allows unauthenticated retrieval of admin credentials and SNMP community strings from affected devices with outdated firmware (pre-2017). The module sends crafted UDP datagrams to the service, leveraging various function codes to extract the device's server name, unlock the device, and retrieve credentials. Extracted credentials are displayed and stored as loot in Metasploit. The code is operational, not just a proof of concept, and is designed for use within the Metasploit framework. No hardcoded IPs or domains are present; the only fingerprintable endpoint is the UDP service port 4800. The repository is well-structured, with clear separation of functions for each protocol operation.
