Category:CGI abuses
Title:NetGear Hidden Password Check
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

NetGear ships at least one device with a builtin administrator
account. This account cannot be changed via the configuration
interface and enables a remote attacker to control the NetGear
device.

To duplicate this error, simply point your browser to a vulnerable
machine, and log in (when prompted) with
userid = super
password = 5777364

or

userid = superman
password = 21241036

Solution: Contact vendor for a fix. As a temporary workaround,
disable the webserver or filter the traffic to the NetGear
webserver via an upstream firewall.

Risk factor : High
