Description

Mark Janssen has reported a vulnerability in Sweex Wireless Broadband Router/Accesspoint, allowing malicious people to gain knowledge of the configuration.

The problem is that the tftp service is running by default and isn't restricted in anyway. This allows anyone with access to the network to download configuration files, including a file containing usernames and passwords.

Reportedly, the tftp service can't be disabled.

Other Sweex products may also be affected.


Solution
Do not use the device on networks with untrusted users.
