CVE-2021-33539
In Weidmueller Industrial WLAN devices in multiple versions an exploitable authentication bypass vulnerability exists in the hostname processing.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.06%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
In Weidmueller Industrial WLAN devices in multiple versions an exploitable authentication bypass vulnerability exists in the hostname processing. A specially configured device hostname can cause the device to interpret selected remote traffic as local traffic, resulting in a bypass of web authentication. An attacker can send authenticated SNMP requests to trigger this vulnerability.
