The winbox service in MikroTik RouterOS 5.15 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption), read the router version, and possibly have other impacts via a request to download the router’s DLLs or plugins, as demonstrated by roteros.dll.
This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
