Session management issue in RX-V200 firmware versions prior to 09.87.17.09, RX-V100 firmware versions prior to 03.29.17.09, RX-CLV1-P firmware versions prior to 79.17.17.09, RX-CLV2-B firmware versions prior to 89.07.17.09, RX-CLV3-N firmware versions prior to 91.09.17.10 allows an attacker on the same LAN to perform arbitrary operations or access information via unspecified vectors.

Weakness

Authenticating a user, or otherwise establishing a new user session, without invalidating any existing session identifier gives an attacker the opportunity to steal authenticated sessions.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Rx-v200_firmware Sharp * 09.87.17.09 (excluding)

Extended Description

Such a scenario is commonly observed when:

In the generic exploit of session fixation vulnerabilities, an attacker creates a new session on a web application and records the associated session identifier. The attacker then causes the victim to associate, and possibly authenticate, against the server using that session identifier, giving the attacker access to the user’s account through the active session.
