Descriptions

The management portal in ARRIS VAP2500 before FW08.41 allows remote attackers to obtain credentials by reading the configuration files.

El portal de gestión en ARRIS VAP2500 anterior a FW08.41 permite a atacantes remotos obtener credenciales mediante la lectura de ficheros de configuración.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of ARRIS VAP2500. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the handling of access to the management portal. The issue lies in the failure to restrict access to configuration files. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to leak credentials which can then be chained to execute code with root privileges.
