Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2018-06-17 20:29 - Updated: 2026-06-17 01:37
Severity
5.3 (Medium) - CVSS:3.0/AV:A/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N
Summary
An issue was discovered on Eminent EM4544 9.10 devices. The device does not require the user's current password to set a new one within the web interface. Therefore, it is possible to exploit this issue (e.g., in combination with a successful XSS, or at an unattended workstation) to change the admin password to an attacker-chosen value without knowing the current password.
