Administrator credential disclosure via unauthenticated database query
Published Aug 13, 2025 · Updated Aug 14, 2025
Information exposure in KuWFi 5G01-X55 firmware FL2020_V0.0.12 allows remote attackers to read administrator credentials. The ajax_get.cgi endpoint accepts which_ajax=database and a caller-controlled pram value, then returns the requested configuration field without authentication. Network access to the management interface is sufficient; disclosed administrator credentials enable full control of the router.
