Remote account compromise via unenforced password strength
Published Aug 4, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Weak password requirements in Raneto 0.17.0 and earlier allow remote attackers to compromise accounts through brute-force login attempts. The config.js credentials array ships with the password “password” and accepts one-character replacements such as “p” without strength validation. Network access to the login interface is sufficient; a successful guess grants the privileges of the configured account, including administrator access for the default user.
