Severity ?
9.2 (Critical) - CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:L/SI:L/SA:L
Summary
Moxa’s Ethernet switch is vulnerable to an authentication bypass because of flaws in its authorization mechanism. Although both client-side and back-end server verification are involved in the process, attackers can exploit weaknesses in its implementation. These vulnerabilities may enable brute-force attacks to guess valid credentials or MD5 collision attacks to forge authentication hashes, potentially compromising the security of the device.

         value: "El conmutador Ethernet de la serie EDS-508A de Moxa, que ejecuta la versión de firmware 3.11 y anteriores, es vulnerable a una omisión de autenticación debido a fallos en su mecanismo de autorización. Aunque en el proceso intervienen tanto la verificación del lado del cliente como la del servidor back-end, los atacantes pueden explotar las debilidades en su implementación. Estas vulnerabilidades pueden permitir ataques de fuerza bruta para adivinar credenciales válidas o ataques de colisión MD5 para falsificar hashes de autenticación, lo que podría comprometer la seguridad del dispositivo.",
