CVE-2025-7357Network attack vector

FTP credential disclosure via cleartext system logging

Published Jul 16, 2025 · Updated Jul 18, 2025

Cleartext credential storage in LITEON IC 48A before 01.00.19r and IC 80A before 01.01.12e allows remote attackers to read FTP credentials. Affected firmware writes FTP server access credentials directly into system log entries without protecting their secrecy. Network access to an affected charger is sufficient to expose the credentials; no ability to alter charger data or interrupt charging is reported.
