The researchers reported the issue to Zyxel at the end of June, the vendor released hotfixes and firmware updates at the end of August. Sec Consult experts published the PoC code also for this vulnerability. When the WiFi network is bound to another VLAN, an attacker can cross the network by fetching the credentials from the FTP server.” reads the advisory. This FTP server can be accessed with hardcoded credentials that are embedded in the firmware of the AP. “An FTP service runs on the Zyxel wireless access point that contains the configuration file for the WiFi network. The experts also discovered hardcoded FTP credentials in multiple Zyxel Wi-Fi access points from the NWA, NAP and WAC series.Īn attacker could use these credentials to log on to the APs FTP server and steal the configuration file that includes SSIDs and passwords. SEC Consult researchers also published the PoC code for the vulnerability.

“A DNS request can be made by an unauthenticated attacker to either spam a DNS service of a third party with requests that have a spoofed origin or probe whether domain names are present on the internal network behind the firewall,” reads the advisory published by the experts. The response will include the IP address of the host if the corresponding domain is present. The first issue is an information disclosure flaw via unauthenticated external DNS requests that affect Zyxel devices from the USG, UAG, ATP, VPN and NXC series.Īn unauthenticated attacker could exploit the flaw to check whether a domain is present or not via the web login interface.
