CVE-2023-2645 is a critical vulnerability in the USR USR-G806 (firmware version 1.0.41) affecting the Web Management Page. The vulnerability arises from the use of hard-coded credentials (username/password: root), allowing remote attackers to authenticate and gain unauthorized access to the device's management interface. The vendor has not responded to disclosure attempts, and exploit details are publicly available.

This repository contains an exploit for CVE-2023-2645, targeting Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) GSM modems. The main file, 'CVE-2023-2645.py', is a heavily obfuscated Python script. It sets a very high recursion limit, then decompresses and executes a large zlib-compressed payload at runtime. The README indicates the exploit is a backdoor for IIoT GSM modems, and hints that the full source code may be available upon request. The exploit is operational, providing a working backdoor payload, but is not part of a known exploit framework. No explicit network endpoints, IPs, or URLs are hardcoded in the visible code, but the attack vector is network-based, as it targets remote modems. The repository structure is simple, with one obfuscated Python exploit and a brief README.
