CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe door access control system on a Norwegian Cruise Line asset is vulnerable due to its reliance on a static 7-byte UID stored on an NTAG212 NFC chip for authentication, which can be easily read and replicated. This lack of proper authentication mechanisms exposes the system to unauthorized access, as the UID alone does not provide sufficient security against credential duplication. Organizations utilizing this access control technology should prioritize addressing this vulnerability to enhance their security posture and prevent potential breaches.
Original NVD Description
The door access control on a Norwegian Cruise Line asset grants entry based only on the credential's static 7-byte UID stored on an NTAG212 NFC chip. A UID is a manufacturer serial number sent in the clear on every read and is not intended to be secret or to authenticate the holder. Validating on the UID of the NTAG212 NFC chip alone is identification, not authentication, and the credential has no challenge-response capability that would resist copying.
