Credential and session theft via cleartext WebGUI traffic
Published Jun 20, 2024 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Cleartext transmission in Westermo L210-F2G Lynx 4.21.0 allows attackers to capture WebGUI credentials and session IDs. When HTTP access is enabled, the WebGUI sends login credentials and session identifiers without transport encryption, exposing them to network sniffing. Man-in-the-middle attackers with adjacent-network visibility and passive user interaction can read those secrets, but this flaw does not alter data or interrupt service.
