CVE-2022-24990Known exploitationPublic exploitNetwork attack vector

Administrative-password disclosure via TNAS User-Agent header

Published Feb 7, 2023 · Updated Oct 21, 2025

Information disclosure in TerraMaster NAS 4.2.29 and earlier allows remote attackers to read the administrative password without authentication. The module/api.php?mobile/webNasIPS endpoint accepts the TNAS User-Agent header and returns the PWD field in its response. Network access to the management service is the only reported gate; the disclosed credential enables administrative access and can support a separate command-execution chain.
