CVE-2024-2371
CVE-2024-2371 exposes sensitive information in Korenix JetI/O 6550 devices. This vulnerability in firmware version F208 Build:0817 stems from the SNMP protocol's use of plaintext for data transmission. An attacker could intercept network traffic and extract credentials. With a SOCRadar Vulnerability Risk Score (SVRS) of 34, while not critical, this information exposure still warrants attention. Exploiting this vulnerability can compromise device security and potentially grant unauthorized access. The use of plaintext SNMP is an outdated and insecure practice, making the device susceptible to eavesdropping attacks. Although the CVSS score is 0, the SVRS indicates a moderate risk due to the potential for credential theft. Immediate action isn't required, but a patch or configuration change to disable or secure SNMP is recommended to mitigate the threat.
Description
