CVE-2026-27520: Binardat 10G08-0800GSM network switch firmware versions prior to V300SP10260209 store a user password in a cli
CVE-2026-27520 is a high-severity flaw (CVSS 7.5) affecting 10g08-0800gsm firmware. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.
Binardat 10G08-0800GSM network switch firmware versions prior to V300SP10260209 store a user password in a client-side cookie as a Base64-encoded value accessible via the web interface. Because Base64 is reversible and provides no confidentiality, an attacker who can access the cookie value can recover the plaintext password.
Why this priority
- High severity
- Remotely exploitable, no login, no user action
A fixed release or distro patch exists.
