Description

An issue was discovered on Mimosa Client Radios before 2.2.3. In the device&#39;s web interface, there is a page that allows an attacker to use an unsanitized GET parameter to download files from the device as the root user. The attacker can download any file from the device&#39;s filesystem. This can be used to view unsalted, MD5-hashed administrator passwords, which can then be cracked, giving the attacker full admin access to the device&#39;s web interface. This vulnerability can also be used to view the plaintext pre-shared key (PSK) for encrypted wireless connections, or to view the device&#39;s serial number (which allows an attacker to factory reset the device).
