# Cudy TR3000 router: forged mesh messages push devices onto attacker Wi-Fi

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-75489 (this .md is for agents)

Cudy TR3000 routers before 2.5.42 protect their Smart Mesh onboarding messages only with an AES key derived from public values and a CRC32 check. An adjacent attacker can forge these messages and force unpaired devices to join an attacker-controlled access point using an attacker-chosen SSID and pre-shared key.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## Affected

- vendor:Cudy TR3000 affected range not listed fixed no fixed version listed

## How to check

- Check the router firmware version in the Cudy web admin under system status; it is vulnerable if below `2.5.42`
- Check whether Smart Mesh (SMT) onboarding is enabled on the device

## Fix

- Cudy TR3000: move to firmware `2.5.42` or later

## Timeline

## From the sources

Cudy TR3000 before 2.5.42 contains an insufficient verification of data authenticity vulnerability in the mt_wifi Smart Mesh Technology (SMT) onboarding, which protects messages only with an AES-CBC key derived from public values and a CRC32 check. Adjacent unauthenticated attackers can forge SMT messages in Probe Request vendor IEs carrying an attacker-chosen SSID and pre-shared key, forcing unpaired devices to join attacker-controlled access points.
