Impacted is confidentiality. CVE summarizes:

The configuration file is encrypted with a static key derived from a static five-character password which allows an attacker to decrypt this file. The application hashes this five-character password with the outdated and broken MD5 algorithm (no salt) and uses the first five bytes as the key for RC4. The configuration file is then encrypted with these parameters.

The weakness was published by Daniel Hirschberger. The advisory is available at r.sec-consult.com. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2024-36496 since 05/29/2024. The exploitation is known to be easy. No form of authentication is required for exploitation. Technical details are unknown but a public exploit is available.
