Details
Summary
CVE-2023-7237 is a vulnerability affecting Lantronix XPort devices. The issue lies in the transmission of credentials, which are sent within web request headers using weak encoding. This makes the credentials vulnerable to interception and unauthorized access by unintended parties. Attackers can potentially exploit this weakness to gain unauthorized access to the affected device and its associated network, leading to potential data breaches or further system compromises. It is strongly recommended that users of Lantronix XPort devices update their firmware to address this issue and implement additional security measures to safeguard their systems.
