Dell · Dell Powerconnect · CVE-2013-3606
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Dell PowerConnect versions 1.2.1.3, 2.0.0.48, and 2.0.1.4
**Description**
The issue concerns the login page in the GoAhead web server, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in a device outage. This can be achieved by submitting a long `username` to the login page.
**Recommendations**
For version 1.2.1.3, restrict access to the login page to prevent remote attackers from causing a denial of service.
For version 2.0.0.48, limit the length of the `username` parameter to prevent exploitation.
For version 2.0.1.4, consider disabling the login functionality until a fix is available to prevent device outages.
