Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Intel WiMAX Network Service versions prior to 1.5.3

Description The issue concerns the InitMethodAndPassword function in the Intel WiMAX Network Service, which uses the same RSA private key in supplicant key.pem on all systems. This allows local users to obtain sensitive information via unspecified decryption operations.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.5.3, update to version 1.5.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the supplicant key.pem file to minimize the risk of exploitation.
