Summary
WAGO: Vulnerabilities in Managed Switch
Severity
High
Notes
Summary: Several vulnerabilities have been identified in the WAGO 852‑1328 device's web‑based management interface, which is implemented using a modified lighttpd server and custom CGI binaries. These issues include multiple stack buffer overflows, an authentication bypass, and insecure credential storage.
Impact: Successful exploitation may allow remote attackers to crash the web service, execute arbitrary code, bypass authentication controls, and obtain plaintext administrative credentials.
Remediation: Please update your devices to the specified fixed firmware version 02.65.
CVE-2026-22903

An unauthenticated remote attacker can send a crafted HTTP request containing an overly long SESSIONID cookie. This can trigger a stack buffer overflow in the modified lighttpd server, causing it to crash and potentially enabling remote code execution due to missing stack protections.

9.8 (Critical)
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
CWE-121 - Stack-based Buffer Overflow
Vendor Fix Please update your devices to the specified fixed firmware version 02.65.
CVE-2026-22904

Improper length handling when parsing multiple cookie fields (including TRACKID) allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to send oversized cookie values and trigger a stack buffer overflow, resulting in a denial‑of‑service condition and possible remote code execution.

9.8 (Critical)
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
CWE-121 - Stack-based Buffer Overflow
Vendor Fix Please update your devices to the specified fixed firmware version 02.65.
CVE-2026-22905

An unauthenticated remote attacker can bypass authentication by exploiting insufficient URI validation and using path traversal sequences (e.g., /js/../cgi-bin/post.cgi), gaining unauthorized access to protected CGI endpoints and configuration downloads.

7.5 (High)
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N
CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')
Vendor Fix Please update your devices to the specified fixed firmware version 02.65.
CVE-2026-22906

User credentials are stored using AES‑ECB encryption with a hardcoded key. An unauthenticated remote attacker obtaining the configuration file can decrypt and recover plaintext usernames and passwords, especially when combined with the authentication bypass.

9.8 (Critical)
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
CWE-321 - Use of Hard-coded Cryptographic Key
Vendor Fix Please update your devices to the specified fixed firmware version 02.65.
