CVE-2001-1117
LinkSys EtherFast BEFSR41 Cable/DSL routers running firmware before 1.39.3 Beta allows a remote attacker to view administration and user passwords by connecting to the router and viewing the HTML source for (1) index.htm and (2) Password.htm.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.84%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
