CVE-2025-61330
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
A hard-coded weak password vulnerability has been discovered in all Magic-branded devices from Chinese network equipment manufacturer H3C. The vulnerability stems from the use of a hard-coded weak password for the root account in the /etc/shadow configuration or even the absence of any password at all. Some of these devices have the Telnet service enabled by default, or users can choose to enable the Telnet service in other device management interfaces (e.g. /debug.asp or /debug_telnet.asp). In addition, these devices have related interfaces called Virtual Servers, which can map the devices to the public network, posing the risk of remote attacks. Therefore, attackers can obtain the highest root privileges of the devices through the Telnet service using the weak password hardcoded in the firmware (or without a password), and remote attacks are possible.

"value": "Se ha descubierto una vulnerabilidad de contraseña débil codificada de forma rígida en todos los dispositivos de la marca Magic del fabricante chino de equipos de red H3C. La vulnerabilidad se origina en el uso de una contraseña débil codificada de forma rígida para la cuenta root en la configuración de /etc/sha4dow o incluso en la ausencia total de cualquier contraseña. Algunos de estos dispositivos tienen el servicio Telnet habilitado por defecto, o los usuarios pueden optar por habilitar el servicio Telnet en otras interfaces de gestión de dispositivos (por ejemplo, /debug.asp o /debug_telnet.asp). Además, estos dispositivos tienen interfaces relacionadas llamadas Servidores Virtuales, que pueden mapear los dispositivos a la red pública, lo que plantea el riesgo de ataques remotos. Por lo tanto, los atacantes pueden obtener los privilegios root más altos de los dispositivos a través del servicio Telnet utilizando la contraseña débil codificada de forma rígida en el firmware (o sin contraseña), y los ataques remotos son posibles."
