VAR-202004-1843

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2023-12-18 13:12

MikroTik WinBox 3.22 and below stores the user's cleartext password in the settings.cfg.viw configuration file when the Keep Password field is set and no Master Password is set. Keep Password is set by default and, by default Master Password is not set. An attacker with access to the configuration file can extract a username and password to gain access to the router. MikroTik WinBox Exists in an inadequate protection of credentials.Information may be obtained. MikroTik WinBox could allow a local malicious user to obtain sensitive information, caused by the storage of user credentials in plain-text in the settings.cfg.viw configuration file
