Technical details

The vulnerability stems from the use of hardcoded values within the AES cryptographic implementation in Gladinet CentreStack and Triofox. By leveraging these static keys, a remote, unauthenticated attacker can craft malicious requests to public-facing endpoints. This can lead to arbitrary Local File Inclusion (LFI), allowing the attacker to read sensitive system files. When combined with other exploitation techniques, this flaw can result in a complete system compromise. The issue is addressed in version 16.12.10420.56791 and later.
