Credential disclosure via URL query parameters
Published Jan 27, 2025 · Updated Jan 27, 2025
Information disclosure in TP-Link TL-SG108E 1.0.0 Build 20201208 Rel. 40304 allows remote attackers to expose credentials via HTTP. The /usr_account_set.cgi handler places username and password parameters in the URL query string, allowing histories, logs, and network observers to retain them. No authentication or user interaction is required, but exploitation has high complexity and the reported impact is limited to credential confidentiality.
