CVE-2023-2062

FTP credential disclosure via unmasked password field

Published Jun 2, 2023 · Updated Mar 5, 2025

Missing password masking in Mitsubishi Electric EtherNet/IP Configuration Tools 1.01B and earlier allows local users to view FTP credentials. The configuration interface renders the stored module FTP password as readable text instead of masking the password field. Access to the workstation interface, including a permitted remote login, exposes credentials that enable unauthorized FTP login to the configured module.
