CVE-2026-34472 — Exposure of Sensitive Information in ZTE Zxhn H188a Firmware

Unauthenticated credential disclosure in the wizard interface in ZTE ZXHN H188A V6.0.10P2_TE and V6.0.10P3N3_TE allows unauthenticated attackers on the local network to retrieve sensitive credentials from the router's web management interface, including the default administrator password, WLAN PSK, and PPPoE credentials. In some observed cases, configuration changes may also be performed without authentication.

Who exploits it and how urgent it is

A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.

Exploit-DB · 1
How the score was calculated
  • Public exploit/PoC (exploitdb)+8
  • EPSS 2.3% (30-day exploitation probability)+12
  • Technical severity (high)+6

The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).

Triage

Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.

Remediation

Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.

No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.

First 24 hours

Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.

  1. Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (ZTE Zxhn H188a Firmware).
  2. No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
  3. Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (info disclosure), errors and authentication anomalies.

Affected scope

Vendor, product and versions as the sources word them.

Public exploits, PoCs and detection templates

Public code that demonstrates or tests the flaw raises the odds of mass exploitation — and Nuclei templates help find vulnerable assets in your environment.

Exploit-DB

Warning: public PoCs are sometimes disguised malware. Use them only for authorized testing in an isolated environment. This portal does not host exploit code — it only points to the sources.

What should defenders know first?

CVE-2026-34472 is "Exposure of Sensitive Information in ZTE Zxhn H188a Firmware", rated High. It affects Zxhn H188a Firmware (ZTE); versions are in the scope table. It is not in CISA KEV, which does not rule out exploitation. CVSS 7.1 describes technical severity. EPSS 2.27% estimates the probability of exploitation in 30 days; neither replaces your asset context. First verify whether exposed or business-critical assets run the affected versions, apply vendor fixes or mitigations, and preserve logs for review.
