Weakness

Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ("Cross-site Scripting")  (CWE-79) 

Summary

Various configuration pages of the device are vulnerable to reflected XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) attacks. An authorized attacker with user privileges may use this to gain access to confidential information on a PC that connects to the WBM after it has been compromised.


Impact

An attacker needs an authorized login on the device in order to exploit the various configuration pages with malicious scripts. This can be used to install malicious code and to gain access to confidential information on a PC that connects to the WBM after it has been compromised.

Solution

Mitigation

  • Restrict network access to the device
  • Use strong passwords
  • Do not directly connect the device to the internet
  • Disable unused TCP/UDP-ports

Solution

Please install upcoming FW-Update, which will be available at end of Q2/2022.
