Unauthenticated file disclosure via language cookie inclusion
Published Jun 2, 2025 · Updated Jun 2, 2025
Local file inclusion in Sitecom WLX-2006 firmware 1.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to read device files via a crafted cookie. The /usr/www/html/main.html interface passes the unvalidated language cookie value to an include directive, allowing arbitrary local paths. No authentication is required; exploitation discloses readable password hashes, wireless keys, and other device configuration data.
