Technical details
The Acer Connect M6E 5G router firmware (vM6E_AI_1.00.000019 and earlier) suffers from CWE-532, where sensitive information is inserted into system log files. Specifically, the logs contain unencrypted SMTP authentication passwords and corporate employee ID data. While the NVD entry lists a network attack vector, this typically implies the logs are accessible via a network-reachable management interface or telemetry service. An attacker obtaining these logs can perform credential theft and identity impersonation. Acer is reportedly working on a firmware update to remediate these logging practices.
