| Title | Tenda AP W12 V1/V2/V3 Hard-coded Credentials |
|---|
| Description | A hard-coded credentials vulnerability was identified in the Tenda AP W12 device running firmware version V1/V2/V3. The root user account uses a hard-coded password (cracked as "Fireitup" using the John tool). This password is stored in the file /etc_ro/shadow using MD5-crypt hashing, which can be easily decrypted by tools like John and exploited. For instance, it allows unauthorized root access to the device through network-accessible services or the administrative interface. |
