*Advisory Summary*
IT Security Geeks have discovered multiple vulnerabilities in the ZyXel
1510 24-port Ethernet switch, these include Admin password stored in
Cookie, reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), and clear-text password
submission.
*Vendor*
Zyxel
*Affected Software*
V1.00(BVN.1)
This is the firmware that runs on the ZyXel model GS1510-24 switch.
*Description of Issue*
The GS1510-24 ZyXel switch, running firmware V1.00(BVN.1), is susceptible
to multiple vulnerabilities, these are all within the management web
interface, and are as follows:
1. The management web interface Cookie contains both the username and the
password for the Admin user to log into the switch.
2. Cleartext submission of password. The page contains a form with the
following action URL, which is submitted over clear-text HTTP:
http://192.168.1.5/webctrl.cgi
The form contains the following password field:
password
3. Cross Site Scripting
The payload fe07b</title><script>alert(xss)</ script>b7e71e54af6 was
submitted in the name of an arbitrarily supplied request parameter.
This input was echoed unmodified in the applications response.
*PoC*
2. Cleartext submission of password.
http://192.168.1.5/webctrl.cgi
Request
GET /login.htm HTTP/1.1

3. Cross Site Scripting
The payload fe07b</title><script>alert(1)</
script>b7e71e54af6 was submitted in the name of an arbitrarily supplied
request parameter.
This input was echoed unmodified in the applications response.
This proof-of-concept attack demonstrates that it is possible to inject
arbitrary JavaScript into the applications response.
