Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Trango Altum AC600 devices (affected versions not specified)
Description
The issue concerns a built-in, hidden root account with a default password of
abcd1234. This account can be accessed via SSH and/or TELNET, granting full control over the device by allowing access to the underlying embedded UNIX OS. The exploitation of this issue may enable a remote attacker to gain administrative access to the device's operating system using SSH or Telnet protocol.Recommendations
For Trango Altum AC600 devices, change the default password of the root account to a strong, unique password to prevent unauthorized access.
As a temporary workaround, consider disabling SSH and TELNET access to the device until a more secure configuration or patch is available.
Restrict access to the device's administrative interface to minimize the risk of exploitation.
