Description
The issue is related to the transmission of secret information in plain text. An attacker can intercept passwords sent in cleartext and conduct man-in-the-middle attacks on the management of the appliance. The appliance can be managed remotely only with HTTP, telnet, and SNMP, and it does not support SSL/TLS for HTTP or SSH.
Recommendations
For CDATA versions 72408A, 9008A, 9016A, 92408A, 92416A, 9288, 97016, 97024P, 97028P, 97042P, 97084P, 97168P, FD1002S, FD1104, FD1104B, FD1104S, FD1104SN, FD1108S, FD1204S-R2, FD1204SN, FD1204SN-R2, FD1208S-R2, FD1216S-R1, FD1608GS, FD1608SN, FD1616GS, FD1616SN, FD8000, consider disabling remote management via HTTP, telnet, and SNMP until a patch is available.
Restrict access to the appliance's management interface to minimize the risk of exploitation.
