High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
NetStructure versions 7110 and 7180
Description
The issue concerns easily guessable passwords for undocumented accounts, including
servnow, root, and wizard, which can be derived from the NetStructure's MAC address. This could allow remote attackers to gain root access.Recommendations
For NetStructure versions 7110 and 7180, consider changing the default passwords of the undocumented accounts
servnow, root, and wizard to strong, unique passwords to prevent easy guessing.
As a temporary workaround, restrict remote access to the NetStructure devices until a more secure configuration can be implemented.Exploit
