Summary

The Huawei E355 adapter with firmware version 21.157.37.01.910 is susceptible to an authentication bypass vulnerability that allows remote attackers to access API endpoints without requiring proper authentication.

Ensuring proper authentication mechanisms and patching vulnerable firmware is crucial to safeguarding user data against potential exploitation.
