Technical details

A missing authorization vulnerability (CWE-862) exists in the firmware of Zyxel GS1200v3 series switches. The flaw allows an unauthenticated attacker with adjacent network access (LAN-based) to retrieve system configuration information by sending a specifically crafted HTTP request to access log files. This occurs because the device fails to properly restrict access to sensitive files containing configuration data. Successful exploitation results in high confidentiality impact as it exposes the device's internal settings. Zyxel has released firmware updates (v1.00(ACPS.3)C0 through v1.00(ACPW.3)C0 depending on the model) to address this issue.
